Kahkakiw the Raven

Kahkakiw, which means raven in Cree, is a puppet that flies around Northern Manitoba, learning with community members about the Coronavirus. Kahkakiw speaks in Cree, English and Dene, as he speaks about the coronavirus pandemic.

Created by Samson Hunter of Nsichiwayasihk Cree Nation, Kahkakiw takes a fun, educational and culturally relevant approach to providing messaging on COVID-19 to Indigenous and First Nations people in Canada. Kahkakiw fills a gap in resources and information, by providing information on the pandemic from an Indigenous perspective.
