We explore the difference between treaty territory and unceded territory, understanding the implications of both. We point out the mistreatment of Indigenous peoples that goes far beyond the failure to honor treaties, such as forced assimilation, cultural suppression and the tragic legacy of the residential school system.\n\n(0:16:29) - Recognizing Indigenous Voices and Addressing Injustices (16 Minutes)\n\nWe discuss the importance of recognizing the wisdom and expertise of land stewards and indigenous communities who have successfully cared for the land and supported their people for generations. We explore the negative and unsustainable impact of colonial powers on the planet, and how denying or disregarding the knowledge and perspectives of these experts may be doing a disservice to ourselves and future generations. We also touch on the over-incarceration and over-criminalization of Indigenous Peoples in Canada, and potential solutions to address these injustices. Finally, we consider a potential suggestion for reconciliation and meaningful change that would involve transferring the functions of the British crown to Indigenous Peoples."}
