Indigenous awareness is essential for newcomers to Canada as it provides a crucial foundation for understanding the historical and cultural context of the country and prepares them to interact and integrate into the multicultural Canadian society.
Canada InfoNet hosted a webinar delivered by me where participants gained insights into colonial events that significantly impacted Indigenous lives, and appropriate terminology for different situations. Additionally, participants discovered actionable steps to foster inclusivity and appreciation for Indigenous cultures in contemporary contexts.

What you'll get in my workshops is my personal lived experience, from an "INDIGENOUS WORLD VIEW" and an "INDIGENOUS LENS", of how colonialism and genocide affected me and my people. I have an academic background in Indigenous Government Studies and BA in First Nations Studies, I also have personal lived experience. I am also an award-winning Indigenous business. As an Indigenous woman, I am greatly impacted by all of the issues that I am sharing with you and discussing.

Truth and Reconciliation: 94 Calls to Action Progress (as of July 3, 2023)
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission was formed as a means of reckoning with the devastating legacy of forced assimilation and abuse left by the residential school system. In June 2015, the commission released a report based on those hearings. From that came the 94 Calls to Action: individual instructions to guide governments, communities, and faith groups down the road to reconciliation.
Were you aware that it has been 8 years since TRC was released?
And within those years the government, communities, and faith groups have only completed 13 of 94 Calls to Action and 18 have yet to be started. Health, Child Welfare, and Education have nothing completed.
Let RAISE help you and your company to learn more about Truth and Reconciliation.
