A member of the Sioux Nations, Angela was born in Manitoba and raised in Victoria where she proudly carried the Canadian flag at the opening of the 1994 Commonwealth Games. Already a double-gold medalist, she would smash her earlier record in front of an ecstatic hometown crowd. Inducted into both the BC and Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame, Angela continues to inspire young athletes.
