One of the more notable stories for me in 2018 was actually what turned out to be a series on the Spirit North cross-country ski program for Indigenous youth. The full amount of the funding turned out to be $1.7 million, more than three times the last grant they received. This meant not only would the program continue and expand in B.C., but Spirit North was also going to move into other provinces.
