Garry McLean Zhoongi-ghabowi ininah

GARRY MCLEAN

Garry McLean (Zhoongi-ghabowi ininah, “Standing Strong Man”) of the Bear Clan was born and raised in Dog Creek Lake Manitoba First Nation, where he lived with his parents and seven siblings. His nickname, “Sunny Boy”, came from his love for waking up early and a cereal he’d beg his grandfather to buy. Despite both parents attending residential school, their connection to language and culture remained strong; Garry spoke Saulteaux Ojibway all his life.

Garry was just six or seven when he began attending the Dog Creek Day School. Shortly after the morning bell rang, he would get the strap for not saying ‘good morning’ in English. Despite the darker times he endured in his youth, Garry shared his gifts of joy and positivity, believing change and growth first begins within. “You’ve gotta,” he’d say. “Ask and have faith that support and guidance will meet you on your path.”

A strong advocate for Treaty rights, Garry was devoted to the interests and well-being of First Nations people, serving as political advisor to three Manitoba Grand Chiefs. He never tired of volunteering his time and talents, and was lead plaintiff in a multi-billion-dollar lawsuit against the federal government for Indian Day Schools. An Indigenous leader and mentor of many abilities, he was also an elected councilor, general manager, director, salesman, and co-published the Indigenous newspaper, Weetamah.

Garry was married and has a daughter and granddaughter. Despite his many professional successes, some of his favourite roles were those of Father, Papa, Uncle, Brother, and friend.

“My life is bigger than I am” is the simple quote taped above the mirror in Garry’s bathroom, serving as a regular reminder of what’s possible.
