History has been so misrepresented that in more Canadian schools that any courses related to Indigenous Studies and Treaties are optional not mandatory. This also relates to immigration: immigrants are not being informed about the treaties as they apply to become Canadians. There is a definite breakdown in communication, truth, honesty and honour here in Canada. So where do we go from here? If you see Got Land? Thank an Indian t-shirt, hoodie, cap etc…take it as a learning opportunity and calm that emotion of being insulted or proud. Take it upon yourself to learn where it’s coming from. Don’t only learn the written version of treaties, also learn the oral version because the Indigenous way of honouring and remembering treaties adds to the beauty of it all. Treaties may just be the answer to environmental concerns and resolution for all the conflict and misunderstanding happening across these bountiful lands. Who knows?
