When Henoc Muamba left Mississauga, Ont., as a teenager for St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia all those years ago, he didn’t understand his potential as a football player or how he might use his place in the game to help others.
On Tuesday, the 32-year-old linebacker demonstrated how he is excelling at both, announcing a free-agent deal with the Toronto Argonauts in front of a virtual audience of Mississauga high school students he was addressing as part of a new mentorship program.
The event marked Muamba’s official return home from a football journey that has taken him to Nova Scotia, Winnipeg, Indianapolis, Saskatchewan and Montreal.
The initiative will match students with a suitable mentor in a student’s field of studies. Influence Mentoring Society Chair Colby Delorme says the aim is to fill the education and employment gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.
“Eliminating these gaps and ultimately increasing Indigenous representation in the private sector, including in management and executive positions, should be a shared journey,” Delorme said in a news release.
“This speaks not only to having the resources available to support Indigenous youth, but also is a signal of true reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.”
Delorme said the initiative is very much guided by The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada’s Calls to Action, which address the need to eliminate the educational and employment gaps between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.
