How much do we really know about Indigenous rights in Canada? What motivates us to learn all there is to know? And where can we turn to learn about Canada’s Indigenous peoples? Let’s look at recent national days of recognition, June 21st and July 1st. Find out about a couple of stories of the hard fight for Indigenous rights. All this is in the spirit of reconciliation as we strive to live in right relationship with the original stewards of this land.
