Role description

[SAGE McKAY] 16, Anishinaabe. Sherry's daughter, activist in training. Wise beyond her years, Sage loves to wax Indigenous politics anytime and anywhere. She's serious and witty but dry and determined to uncover the truth about who her father is. When the kids at school call her a "Pretendian," it sends her on a deeply personal mission to prove them wrong—not just to others, but to herself. Sage is Sherry's toughest critic and her greatest ally, even when they're butting heads. She wants more than survival—she wants clarity, legacy, and purpose. But to get that, she'll have to face the uncomfortable truth about her family—and maybe accept that bloodlines aren't the only thing that defines who she is. SERIES LEAD. THIS ROLE IS UNDER A 3 YEAR OPTION.

[RIVER McKAY] 13, Anishinaabe. Sherry’s son and youngest child. He’s bright, kind, smart, and helpful.

He is well behaved, knowing he absolutely does not want to wind up staying with his dad, Leonard, whose bravado he can see right through. River finds a friend in Carter, who we discover have a lot to teach each other. River’s journey throughout the season is to find his confidence and finally stand up to his problematic Dad.
