Canadian PM, Marc Miller, spoke to the House of Commons in Canada in a language most people may have never heard from before. Miller addressed the House in Kanien'kéha, the language of the Mohawk people, an indigenous tribe of North America.
Miller stated that, "It started out while I was Quebec Caucus Chair challenging my colleagues to perfect their French. So I decided to take on a new language, as well! I hope to have inspired a few people to learn an indigenous language!"
