Join us for our fourth installment of the Treaty Learning Journey Series: Contemporary Treaty Issues. Developed by the Office of the Treaty Commissioner; the Treaty Learning Journey – Let’s Talk Truth will educate you on Before Treaty (Worldview and Indigeneity), At Treaty (Pre-contact Treaties, numbered Treaties, Spirit and Intent), Breaches of Treaty (Indian Act, Indian Residential Schools, NRTA), and Today (current Indigenous circumstances, myths and misconceptions). The Treaty Learning Journey comes to you from the Indigenous side of the story.

You will learn about current Indigenous circumstances such as, but not limited to: the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), Jordan’s Principle and myths and misconceptions.

Treaties are a timeless, living, breathing document that are meant to benefit two sovereign nations. Indigenous People continue to fight for the rights stated in Treaty.
