Fantastic course, presented in a knowledgeable fashion. Learn at your own pace, student/instructor forum discussions, video lessons with transcripts and reading materials. Plus the ability to re-set deadlines when life gets in the way! Definitely recommend this one!

Thank you to everyone that presented this course. I loved the music, the artwork and the structure of this course. It was very informative, eye opening and raw. I know there is so much more to learn so I am looking forward to diving in deeper to expand my knowledge.

I learned a great deal about Indigenous History and European colonialism in Canada, how much is yet to be accomplished in refining our education system and political systems to include Indigenous voice , experience, and tradition.

Thank you for offering this course.

Thank you so much for this free course! I learned so much and am motivated to explore some of these issues in more depth. Every Canadian should do this course. So much of this history is left our of our education system which is grossly unfair. We need to do better.

Very interesting course. Very much the opinion of the narrators - much is true but being a non-indigenous person made me feel as if I was the direct cause of all the indigenous problems, which I am quite sure is not the case. I liked learning more about the history.

This couse was so enlighening. I truly emjoyed it and would definiteyy take a second level, if one is offered. Thank you to all inolved in this course for giving me the opportunity to learn so much. Everyone living in Canada should be required ot take this course.

I thought this course was very informative! I feel like it filled a HUGE gap in my education on Canadian history. I really appreciated that it was free and that I was able to do the lectures at my own pace per week. Would absolutley reccomend this course to others!

As a new comer to Canada this was an essential learning. This should be mandatory within our school systems to enlighten the next generations who will hopefully push the government into real and meaningful talks to bring forward reconciliation and respect for all.

An excellent course. I am an informed person and work hard at staying that way but this course did an excellent job of providing consolidation to to it all. I am sad that it is over. I will look for more. Thank you to all involved in putting this course together

This course was engagine and extremely informative. I love that it was taught by indigenous professors vs. white "experts". This is the critical truth...the real story as opposed to what we were taught in school. I wish there were a similar course: Indigenous U.S.

I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history and present lives of the indigenous people. I especially liked the material on the Canadian government Treaty process. I also like the way the indigenous focused on restorative punishment instead punitive punishment.

The balance and breadth of content is so well tuned. The presenters captivating, outshone only by the interviewees. Beautiful production. And most importantly, the knowledge and insight offered in this course is...a gift. Thankyou.

I ask of myself, where to now?

This course was superb. The lively weekly discussion with Tracey, Paul, Dan & guests was so helpful in bringing the course material to life, and I'm grateful for all the time, energy, and knowledge shared. Thank you from the bottom of this Canadian settler's heart.

This course was instrumental in getting a more complete understanding of continuous relationships between indigenous peoples and settlers in Canada. In my opinion, this course should be transformed into a documentary and shown on all the major Canadian TV channels.

So much of the information in this course (particularly the first several modules) should be required in our schools. Personally, I learned the European version of our history. We need to hear the WHOLE story - the good, the bad AND the ugly. So glad I did this!

A great way to introduce Indigenous matters to people in and out of the community. As a Canadian I was very proud to learn about the history, and current affairs within Canada. I wish it was taught more in school! Thank you for providing such an exceptional course!

Fantastic Course, I'm so grateful that this was available during a Global Pandemic. It's crucial information that I believe everyone should have! Thank you to the course instructors, the presenters, the behind the scenes people, and the people who were interviewed!

I found this course super valuable as a Canadian. I feel this course should be attended by all Canadians to learn how Canada came to be and how we, the new generations, can help to reconcile with the past and help all Canadians to move into a collaborative future.

All Canadians should make it a priority, in the spirit of reconciliation, to learn about Canada's foundations from the perspectives of Indigenous peoples. I am looking forward to continuing my education on this topic, sharing my knowledge, and being a better ally.

An artistic, thought-provoking and incredible course that all who are living in Canada should strive to make time in their schedules to complete. To all those who put this together, thank you immensely for your hard work, your dedication and sharing of knowledge.

This is my first online class and due to work,home and health was perfect for me. This coarse opened my eyes to what my mother lived through and wish she was still here to talk about what I have learned. I appreciate all the instructors, speakers and Leah Dorion.

Amazing, thought provoking. The most upsetting take away is how much I have never been taught. I appreciate the time and heart and humour and patience and tears from all involved in developing and delivering this course. I am going to miss this weekly journey.

Incredibly well-structured, educational, helpful, and truthful. Thank you so much for the work you put into creating and delivering this crucial course. I will be spreading the news about it as much as I can in the hopes that it reaches as many people as possible.

Wow. This content should be part of every Canadians public school education. I have always loved First Nations cultures but I feel this course has helped me understand the complexities that have been faced and how we need to rectify even more as an entire country.

I really enjoyed taking this course. I learned a lot, and it gave me lots to think about. I hope everyone in Canada takes this course, and it begins conversations and relationships that help us grow stronger as a country and nation where everyone is part of us.
