Speaking Our Truths: The Journey Toward Reconciliation – Part 2

February 24, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm EST

In Part 2 we examine how the past attitudes, policies and legislation has impacted the current situation of Indigenous peoples and how the current trajectory can be remedied. Indigenous peoples have displayed their resilience as will be shown by the many Indigenous success stories. 

A message from the facilitator, John Crouch: “The feedback from these sessions have been remarkably positive with participants telling me they hunger for more. This has led me to begin work on a training session on treaty making, the impact on Indigenous populations and what it means for the average non-indigenous Canadian. While a recent poll from Reconciliation Canada shows that across Canada no more than 50% of Canadians believe that reconciliation is of any importance, my feeling is that in academia at least there is a desire to bring about reconciliation with Indigenous peoples. From reconciliation flows my optimistic vision of decolonization of our nation state.”
