Kaluyu'ti (pronounced Gal-Lou-Hugh-N-Dee) is a member of the Onyo'ta a:ka First Nation of the Thames. His name means "Cloudspassingover". He was
born and raised, for the most part, in London Ontario Canada. During Kaluyu'ti's childhood, there was little to no
exposure to his ancestoral culture and therefore, it has become an on-going learning
process. The principles taught by Aboriginal elders are: Love, Respect, Truth, Bravery,
Wisdom, Humility and Honesty. The Haudensaunee (people of the Longhouse) have the Great Law of Peace to guide them.

Directors for N'Amerind Friendship Centre in London, as well as a member of Wiich Ke
Yig (London chaptor of C.A.S.N.P) In 1997, Kaluyu'ti helped co-ordinate the "Listen For The Drums" Native Art Exhibition. He has done poetry readings at the Forest City Gallery and at the Listen For The Drums Exhibition.
