On June 12, 2016, the Metis Nation of Ontario (MNO) Peterborough and District Wapiti Métis Council (PDWMC) hosted a Harry Daniels Potluck in celebration of the recent Métis victory in Daniels v. Canada.

The potluck was a family fun event with crafts for kids and adults and great prizes. Many local MNO staff were also in attendance. Everyone enjoyed a wonderful meal of traditionally prepared wildlife and other great food.

The Council was delighted to have in attendance special guest and MNO citizen Anthony Carelli. Carelli better known by his ring name Santino Marella, is a Métis professional wrestler who was signed with the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) for eight years until his retirement in 2014.
