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.

Beautifully put together - shines light on the issues that ARE NOT taught in the grade school curriculum for Alberta! Would highly recommend every one take this course to educate themselves on these topics.

Learning about the Indigenous Canada made me realize how little most of us know about their history. Thank you so much, the course was so interesting and I'm looking forward to learn more about this topic.

It was easy for me to learn by watching the videos and to read the notes afterward to supplement my learning. My knowledge and understanding of Canadian history have expanded. Thank you!!! Excellent course!

This course was very informative and interesting. I learned a great deal, including how narrow minded some educators of my previous educational experiences really were. Thank you for offering this course.

As a settler in Canada this was an eye-opening and honest lesson that was never taught to me in school. Thank you so much for creating this course and allowing it to be free and accessible on this platform.

Wonderful introduction to indigenous culture, issues, and issues told from an indigenous perspective. Highly educational and eye opening. It should be a mandatory course for all Canadians. Highly recommend.

The course was very good and gave me a good introduction to the history of Canada and how things developed to today. It is just the beginning of understanding but found the information and delivery good.

Excellent compilation of fundamental knowledge, to initiate true learning about Indigenous People of Canada.
And the paintings by Leah Dorion with support of the team really are the 'icing on the cake'..!

It was refreshing to learn about the history of Canada through an Indigenous lens. I felt the course was laid out in a way that gave important context to many issues impacting Indigenous communities today.

I really recommend this course to anyone who wants to be more aware of Indigenous history, culture and voices. It just scratches the surface but is an amazing tool to better understand the world around us.

Excellent course and I learned so much. One thing is that the course needs to be updated particularly in light of recent indigenous events in Canada. Hopefully the faculty will do that in the near future.

I am so glad that I was able to take the time and complete this course. We are far too undereducated in Canada on Aboriginal/Indigenous history and realities of life within a colonial system of government.

This course has completely changed how I view Canada and has made me even more of an activist for Indigenous rights, respect for the land, and respect for all peoples living within our borders. Thank you!

I wish this would have been taught in the 70's & 80's when I was in High School. We need to understand North America Indigenous community, culture and way of life has been forever changed by the settlers.

Excellent course. The inclusion of art to enhance the learning concepts was very effective. Interesting material and great introduction to a history of Canada that most of us never learned in grade school.

Wonderful course! Learned a lot, enjoyed the stories, art and activism and was at times very shocked at some of the history. Can't wait to explore more indigenous courses and teachings in the coming years.

Amazing. Incredible overview of the lasting effects of colonization on Indigenous people. I have a much deeper understanding of Canadian history that the public education system did not give me. Thank you.

Ce cours est éclairant sur la réalité des premières nations. J'ai beaucoup apprécié son contenu et son rythme. J'ai été touché par le côté artistique par la musique et les oeuvres expliquées par l'artiste.
