Abstract An article detailing Waneek Horn-Miller's personal history with water polo, attending the first NAIG (and subsequent Games after), and her traumatic experience with the Oka Crisis in 1990. It follows her inspirational journey of breaking through her past traumas to become a top Indigenous female water polo star and Olympic gold medalist. Waneek's story is an example of how sport can truly be transformational, and as it says in the article, "Sport [is] medicine".
