Rest In Peace: tomorrow,tomorrow
First, let me tell you a little bit about the word.

It is a Cree word meaning "let's be all together". It speaks to the shared use of the building

and the cooperation of the partners.(There is no capitalization in the Cree language. To honour the

tradition and use of the Cree language, mamaweyatitan will not be capitalized. Additionally

the pronoun "the" will not be used in identification of mamaweyatitan centre.---Regina Leader Post Page

The neighbourhood food store provided by REACH (Regina Education Against Child Hunger)

The centre also includes recreational complex and gymnasia, multi-purpose room and Elder's room.
 
outdoor plans include a garden, basketball court, soccer pitch, and a cultural

space with elements drawn from Indigenous traditions. Many of the indoor rooms

will be available for rental/use by all citizens of Regina.

It is the first such centre of its kind in Canada.
 
Multiuse facilities have been a growing trend for a while. When I left the library in 1999 we were working on a new branch that would share space with a high school. Two London branches share space with YMCA facilities and community centres. And so on. This one seems to take the concept to a bit of an extreme. It will be interesting to see how it works out.
