Sask women aim to preserve Cree and Dene languages with new apps

  PRINCE ALBERT Two Saskatchewan women are leading the creation of two apps that teach their traditional Indigenous languages. Gwen Cubbon, a 36-year-old from the Canoe Lake Cree First Nation, grew up speaking Cree but it wasn’t until she went to school that she learned English. Since moving from her home community, she’s lost a lot of the Cree language, but is working on regaining it. “I just want to be an advocate for people my age and people who are really wanting to learn that it is possible,” she said. Cubbon is hoping her app is an accessible way of learning the Cree language that’s specific to Canoe Lake, which also contains a small amount of Michif.
