UNBC Writer in Residence - Tenille K. Campbell
UNBC hosts Tenille K. Campbell as a Writer in Residence between January and April 2025. Occupying an office in the administration building, Campbell will work on new material for a future story, meet with visitors for creative expression, and perhaps partake in a little gossip.
Campbell, originally from English River First Nation, Saskatchewan, gained national attention with her 2017 poetry collection, IndianLovePoems. Exploring themes of sensuality, healing, and connection, her work also reflects modern digital life, where truth is elusive and community is essential.
A self described “social media elder,” Campbell also plans to explore land-based writing involving her family’s brief history in Lheidli T’enneh Territory. She will also be attending the Weaving Words Festival or ‘Ut’loo Noye Khunni from March 5-8. - Ian Gregg, CFUR Due North

Amy Blanding, releases controversial single despite backlash
In April 2024, local musician Amy Blanding performed a song that would completely disrupt her life, eight months later she’s finally prepared to release that song, Sunbirds, on January 31st.
Known for her material that challenges authority and demands change, this track took aim at global powers, our own government, and ourselves. Blanding describes her efforts to outline the ways in which we are all complicit in the oppression of others, and bring attention to Palestinians affected by conflict between Hamas and the Israeli Defense Force.
She felt the backlash though, including her removal from her post at Northern Health. She countered with a lawsuit and told CFUR News, “Again, I consider it my responsibility to use the stage that I have to share those stories and make space for those voices. Sunbirds is the same.”
Sunbirds is available January 31st on her Bandcamp page with all proceeds going to Wear the Peace. - Ian Gregg, CFUR Due North
