Thanks for teaching me a lot about indigenous history in Canada. I am inspired to learn more. I just finished Chelsea Vowel’s book, Indigenous Writes and I’m currently reading the summary of the RCAP.

I found this course very humbly and informative. It was challenging at times to my inculcated White Body Supremacy, which I did not welcome and am doing what I can to decolonize myself of.
Thanks!

A very valuable courese. Having been raised in a uniquely settler cuture, it was hard to understand Indigenous issues without first examining Indigenous world view and recent indigenous history.

This was very informative. I learned things they never taught us in school about the fur trade. I feel like there's more to learn. I hope one day I can learn more. Thank you for the great course.

This is a very comprehensive course that has given me a much better perspective on the issues affecting aboriginal people in Canada. This contains information that challenges so many stereotypes.

Thank you for this!
The first few opportunities asked if there was interest in registering or certification of the course. Attempts at finding this invitation have been unsuccessful. Can you help?

Very, very informative! I loved it. I am Metis but was raised by a European father. It has only been in the past few years that I am learning more about myself and my ancestors. Great course!

This was an excellent course! Thank you for bringing a different view of that of the public school system we all received. I believe all Canadians should take this at some point in their lives.

Excellent course for those who are wanting to learn more; get some beginners knowledge on how 'things came to be'. Good overview on treaties and how 'Canada" came to be. Very fulsome overview.

An enlightening course - the content is well organized and presented and certainly gives one a lot to consider and digest. This should be part of the education of all young people who live here.

Excellent introduction to Indigenous history and presence in so-called Canada, and gives you a great place to start digging deeper. Loved the way art was used throughout as part of the pedagogy.

Learned so much! Highly recommend. Now when I read different articles, for example, the lobster fishery in Nova Scotia, it enrages because I now know that what is happening there is not right.
