(Submitted by Angela Houle - image credit)An Indigenous strongwoman is competing this week in Fort McMurray as the only female amateur in the Pro Am competition. Angela Houle is battling for a spot in Canada's Strongest Woman, so she can enter and become the first Indigenous woman to get her pro card in Canada. In the last two years, Houle has been in six competitions and she placed in the top three every time. She started flipping tractor tires around the track as a way for her to battle the postpartum depression she was facing, but it developed into a passion for strongwoman competitions.
