This online self-paced course provides an overview of the historical relationship between Indigenous Peoples and the Government of Canada, from first contact to the present-day focus on rebuilding this foundational relationship. Participants will benefit from a broader understanding of the impacts of government decisions on Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous communities.
This course is designed to address the professional development and training requirements of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Call to Action #57. Following respectful protocols, participants will discover little-known historical facts, learn about the impacts of Residential Schools and the rights of Indigenous Peoples, and better understand the obligations of public servants towards Indigenous Peoples.
