Finding Me
Finding Me is the story of a young man who wanted to find his grandfather and his grandfather's family. He never got to meet his grandfather, who had passed away before he was born. He asked his mother about his grandpa, but she never got to meet him either, as he had passed away before she married his father. So he decided to take a DNA test to find his relatives. He goes to speak with a lot of the family members that he found through Ancestry's DNA testing. He learns that no one knew of his grandpa. He later finds his grandfather and some other family members. This is his journey of finding his grandpa's family as well as his uncles, aunts, and cousins.

MacKinnon provides rare insight into their lives, demonstrating the contributions Metis women made to the building of the Prairie West. This is a compelling tale of two women’s acts of quiet resistance in the final days of the British Empire.
