Francis Pegahmagabow was a remarkable aboriginal leader who served his nation in time of war and his people in time of peace. In wartime he volunteered to be a warrior. In peacetime he had no option. His life reveals how uncaring Canada was about those to whom this land had always been home.

A member of the Parry Island band (now Wasauksing First Nation) near Parry Sound, Ontario, Francis served with the Canadian Expeditionary Force in Belgium and France for almost the entire duration of the First World War, primarily as a scout and sniper. Through the horrific battles and inhumane conditions of trench warfare, his actions earned him three decorations for bravery -- the most ever received by a Canadian aboriginal soldier. More recently, they inspired the central fictional character in Joseph Boyden's highly acclaimed novel Three Day Road.

Physically and emotionally scarred by his wartime ordeals, Francis returned to Parry Island to try to rebuild his life. He had been treated as an equal in the army, but quickly discovered things hadn't changed back in Canada. As a status Indian his life was regulated by the infamous Indian Act and by local Indian agents who seemed bent on thwarting his every effort to improve his lot.

So, Francis became a warrior once more -- this time in the even longer battle to achieve the right of aboriginal Canadians to control their own destiny.

In compiling this account of Francis Pegahmagabow's remarkable life, Adrian Hayes conducted extensive research in newspapers, archives, and military records, and spoke with members of Pegahmagabow's family and others who remembered the plight and the perseverance of this warrior.

Overall good aesthetic result for mineral sunscreen, but some downsides
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It is quite good overall, it blends in perfectly to my medium-light warm tone skin. There is no white tint. It seems effective in terms of SFP and doesn't leave a greasy or heavy feel, ends up looking lightly glowy but reasonably dry to the touch. I'm not sure you'd want to apply it thick enough to substitute for foundation. What I don't like - Like makeup the color can rub off on clothes etc. - Doesn't seem to reapply very well, leads to pilling, and also rubbing my face at all leads to pilling. It's very "don't touch it again after you applied once" - Quite hard to remove with normal cleanser, I think I might need to remove it with oil or something?

Way too heavy & greasy for combination skin
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Ugh this tinted sunscreen is such a let-down. I was excited to find an option that's a mineral sunscreen, with tinting that's supposed to work for all skin tones, is made with non-comedogenic ingredients, and is a more reasonable price than what my old tinted sunscreen now costs. I saw mixed reviews on the greasiness / heaviness of this sunscreen, but decided to give it a try, especially because I have combo skin that gets pretty dry in the winter... but wish I had listened to the people who said this is overwhelmingly thick. Pros: the tint works fairly well for my light-to-medium warm-toned skin (although you can see in my video it doesn't blend at all well with my hand's skin tone... so can't imagine this will be universal), it doesn't irritate my combination skin that can be very sensitive, and hasn't blocked my pores. Cons: This feels like I'm smearing peanut butter on my face - it is such a thick and oily consistency. I have combination skin, with some areas that are especially dry right now in a northern winter climate... but this is not what I would call "moisturizing" - it's greasiness that is impossible to rub in, doesn’t dry down, and instead just sits on the skin (and I'm not even using close to the amount of sunscreen you're supposed to in order to get the true SPF coverage). I use tinted sunscreen to replace the need for a BB cream or foundation, and this unfortunately would never be appropriate for everyday wear.
