Very informative, I really enjoyed this course. The perspectives presented were eye-opening, and it was nice to be able to learn more about Indigenous peoples and what they have endured on their land.

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 the course to be well constructed and thoughtfully put together. I have lived in Canada most of my life and yet in my 60's have learned a great deal through taking this course.
Thank you

I really learned a lot from this course. It was important for me to get a better understanding of our Indigneous History. I also appreciated the combination of reading material and visuals .

It has been a journy by Canada history which we do not know much about it, and the best is to know that resilience is a human quality, and indigenous culture is alive and is here to stay still.

Excellent survey course for those interested in the complex history and contemporary issues facing both Indigenous and Settlers in Canada while we hopefully begin to move towards reconciliation

Fantastic. I cannot believe how badly we treated these lovely people. I now better understand the cultural trauma that is so present and I better understand my sister -in-law and her struggles.

Scholerly and personally enriching. Awareness and celebration of our north american heritage of indigenous cultures and values are greatly needed at this time of entropy in earth's balance.
