11 years old Samantha Metcalfe and Cailyn Degrandpre throat sings during Justin Trudeau's ceremony.

Inuit throat singers were invited to perform during Justin Trudeau's swearing-in ceremony for the first time. After learning more about the aboriginal's culture and their history I think it was a very loving and honourable moment. The aboriginal people that have been ignored for years are finally getting more attention and people are starting to appreciate them. Although the process may be slow, at least everything is changing. 

The performance was breath taking, I seriously don't know how on earth to sing like that. Singing from your throat takes a lot of talent and I thought it was very interesting. It's great that kids are performing so that the kids, the future will have more experience and would treasure the memories.
