Ryan Bellerose is a well-known Metis indigenous rights activist from Northern Alberta and a self-proclaimed Zionist. Ryan has traveled extensively through Israel. He believes that Israel is an inspirational model for indigenous peoples. He is a great storyteller and his knowledge of history and various indigenous peoples has enabled him to write articles about identity and indigenous rights that have been published worldwide.
Ryan was an organizer of the “Idle No More” movement (which supports indigenous sovereignty and land and water stewardship). He has helped found groups such as Canadians for Accountability (a native rights advocacy group), Canadians for Human Rights in the Middle East and Calgary United with Israel.
Ryan has a diverse work history ranging from building ice bridges, to working in security, telecommunications, and in substance abuse counseling. This diverse life experience enables him to relate to various groups.

Mishloach Manot Purim Gifts Order Deadline
2018-02-12 17:00
Send friends and family special Mishloach Manot (Purim gifts) and help support the synagogue at the same time. The mitzvah of exchanging Purim gifts has never been so easy – it’s a two for one mitzvah and it’s just a few clicks away!
Here’s how it works in three easy steps:
1. Look for your flyer in the mail and email with the website and your personal login code
2. Go to the site and log in
3. Check the names of those you wish to receive this gift – say, Tom, Dick and Harry for $5 each.
Tom, Dick and Harry each get ONE gift with a letter listing you and anyone else who sent to them. There is also an option to reciprocate gifts – to ensure that you send Mishloach Manot to anyone who sends to you, even if you forgot them on your list. All proceeds benefit our HNT community. Place your order by Monday, February 12 at 5:00 PM!
It’s easy – It’s fun – It’s a mitzvah!
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT PICKUP/DELIVERY: the default for receiving a package is pickup at HNT.
