Omeasoo-Steinhauer

From page 36.

Omeasoo-Steinhauer has completed all of his post-secondary education thus far remotely. He said his living and travel expenses have been greatly reduced since he has been able to continue living in his First Nation house.

He lives in a house with seven other family members, including his mother and his two siblings and their spouses and children.

“It’s quite a busy house,” he said. “But I created my own sanctuary where I can go for my own quiet space.”

Omeasoo-Steinhauer added if he does indeed pursue his Master’s degree, he’ll be required to attend in-person classes for that.

Omeasoo-Steinhauer is also on the planning committee for Cando’s sixth annual economic development youth summit.

This event, which runs Aug. 14-17, will be held at the Grey Eagle Resort on Tsuut’ina Nation, adjacent to Calgary.
