Henry Steven Smallboy

I only recently learned of Henry's passing, and it absolutely broke my heart. He was my foster brother before I was born, and briefly when I was a baby, from what my parents have told me. I grew up not consciously being aware of this fact, but feeling somehow that I was supposed to have a big brother. By some miraculous twist of fate, we were reconnected when he and I were teenagers, and then again through Facebook some years ago. I quite enjoyed our random chats through Facebook messenger, and had been searching for him off and on after our last chat in early 2020. At that time, I had told him that I was proud of him, and looking back, I am so glad that I did. I just wish that I had known what was going on with him at the time. He was a very special person, and more loved than he knew, I'm sure. My sincere condolences to all who knew and loved him. ❤️

I send my deep sadness, and condolences to Henry's family. Henry was a super intelligent man, with a mischievous sense of humour and a unique view on the world. I enjoyed some memorable times with him, doing activist work, building props together and spending half the time just laughing, and also in social events. This is a sad day. Rest in peace, Henry.

My condolences to Henry's family and friends. I met him on the bus trip from London to the Supreme Court of Canada in July 2017 where we demonstrated in support of Chippewa of the Thames and Clyde River cases being heard that day. We connected a few more times at various social justice events. He was a good-hearted compassionate man. RIP Henry.

I learned today of Henry's passing. How terribly sad. My deepest condolences to his friends, family and loved ones. I met Henry in 2015 working on the Hydro One Not For Sale Campaign. He was an amazing activist, very dedicated to our cause. He volunteered an abundance of his time which was so valued. He was fun to be around, always making me laugh or shake my head (in a good way!) Rest easy Henry.

Henry was a good friend. He had his struggles but i more rather appreciated the kind soul he had. Im proud to call him a friend. We were good friends in London, Ontario as well in Toronto, Ontario when he came here. I just found out today and im completely crushed by this news. He was a good dude and always wanted the best for everyone.. he cared a lot about the world.. im gonna miss ya bud.. ill always cherish the good times we had. Rest in Power Henry until we meet again. 💔

I met Henry Smallboy working for the city of Toronto. Each morning he would come by the office and we would chat about various topics ranging from his plans for later tattoos to colonialism and children rights. Henry was incredibly intelligent and a joy to speak to each day. He was a strong minded and passionate man with a silly sense of humour that always made me smile. I will always remember him and all the beautiful conversations we shared together.

My sincere condolences to Henry's family and community . I only knew Henry for a short while but he certainly was easy to connect with. He liked to laugh and was very kind to everyone he met. He was very smart and passionate about things that were important to him. He will be missed
