Summary:

"Hello! My name is Sus Zul in the Carrier language. In English, people call me Spirit Bear. I am a proud member of the Carrier Sekani Tribal Council. I am on my way to Ottawa, Ontario, to witness a very important human rights case. Would you join me on this journey?" When Spirit Bear's mom tells him about an important human rights case happening in Ottawa, Ontario, he makes the LONG trip (by train, his favourite way to travel) to go and watch, and to stand up for First Nations kids. And he isn't the only one! Lots of children come too - to listen, and to show they care. Spirit Bear knows that children can change the world because he's there to see it happen. This is the story of how kids - kids just like you - made a difference ... with a bit of help from some bears and other animals along the way! The Spirit Bear series includes a Learning Guide for educators.
