Thank you for visiting
In recent years there have been more and more public expressions of sovereignty by Indigenous peoples living in what some call Canada. At the same time, increasing numbers of non-Indigenous (settler) peoples have been paying attention and asking questions about the country's - and their own - relationship with Indigenous peoples.
This site is meant to support people who are asking questions and looking to learn more in respectful and useful ways. It was created to provide access to information to help non-Indigenous (settler) peoples grow relationships with Indigenous peoples that are rooted in solidarity and justice.
Of course, learning shouldn't only happen through a website, so the site also shares listings of events and initiatives that may help grow new relationships.
