Over the past year, starting in February 2003, Rick researched and wrote two stories for the Kuhkenah News page that appeared in each issue of Wawatay News. Twenty-five issues later, this biweekly feature in the Wawatay newspaper has now come to an end with the final page being published in the February 12, 2004 issue.

Each of the fifty articles that Rick produced contain interviews and information about the work being done by the Kuhkenah Network of Smart First Nations demonstration project, its partners and the people who are creating new and innovative on-line solutions across Nishnawbe Aski Nation. Rick was able to bring out the positive developments; highlighting the opportunities along with the challenges that now exist for the people living in rural and remote First Nations. His stories brought to life the work that has been accomplished in a relatively short period of time through the efforts of a large collective of creative people living and working across this vast region of Northern Ontario.

With this document, we are publishing all the stories as a collection for everyone to read and review. The table of contents contains the date that the page was published with a link to the graphic image of the actual page that is posted on-line. The twenty-five pages are on-line at http://photos.knet.ca/Kuhkenah-pages in three different sizes (thumbnail, medium and full page). The story headline for each issue follows the date.
