To most people, the intersection of Main and Brandt [in Steinbach, Manitoba] is just another high traffic corridor but for one up-and-coming dancer, it is centre stage.
Grunthal Resident Kane Frieze [an individual living with FASD] grew up in the North End of Winnipeg where he developed a passion for moving and grooving to the beat. Now, he stands on the street corner most weekdays showing off his dance moves to the motoring public.
“My philosophy is don’t take life too seriously,” he says, “always enjoy the small moments, and if things get gloomy, just know there is always a smile out there waiting for you.”
Family members, individuals with FASD and Elders who attended the 2019 Canada Northwest FASD Partnership symposium were asked ahead of time to send in their thoughts on the question, “What would your world look like if you woke up tomorrow and there was no more stigma about FASD?” During the 2 days of the symposium, some of their thoughts were read out loud to keep everyone focused on the goal of generating new ideas on promoting dignity and understanding for those impacted by FASD. After the symposium, Dorothy Reid took the readings and created this video.
