Sitting in a circle around a drum on the forest floor, Ann Paul said a visit with Gov. Gen. Mary Simon felt like a family gathering.
Simon and her husband Whit Fraser were visiting Kehkimin, a Wolastoqey language immersion school that operates out of Killarney Lodge's ground floor.
Ann wanted to know: why did Simon pick Kehkimin as a stop during her visit to New Brunswick?
"It's important for the language to stay alive," Simon told her.
