2021 Epekwitk Mi'kmaq Place Names
During Aboriginal Awareness Week in 2020, a special initiative to increase awareness and elevate the language was launched in partnership with the Government of PEI, which saw a series of place name signs in the Mi’kmaq language installed in nine locations across Epekwitk.
During Aboriginal Awareness Week 2021, this initiative was continued in partnership with the Government of PEI and ten more signs were raised across Epekwitk.
Please have a look and listen to the Epekwitk place names in Mi’kmaq to learn how to pronounce them.
