I found this course to be very informative. Thank you for the opportunity to see our shared history from another perspective. I hope this is as groundbreaking for my fellow Canadians as it was for me.

This was a really great course-I learned so much. I thought the course was very well organized and each module brought many perspectives that I hadn't really been exposed to throughout my education.

As a UK citizen, I knew very little about the Indigenous people of Canada. I'm really pleased that I took this course - it was well put together, extremely interesting and I have a much better understanding of the Indigenous tribes of Canada, and their history.

Excellent, well written and spoken course. The art is a beautiful addition, and this is a fabulous tool to learn more about Indigenous culture in our country. I particularly enjoyed the views on Western/Indigenous law; there is a lot to learn from that lesson.

I am from Spain, so besides the residential schools' issue, I was completely unaware of most of the information that was provided and I would recommend anyone who is trying to be a better ally to enroll, participate and know more about the people you support.

This was an excellent starting point. I appreciate the added resources to further explore. I enjoyed the variety of presenters each week, and the art work, visuals and music. I recommend this course to anyone interested in learning about Indigenous Canada

I learned so much from this course, and in the wake of the discovery of residential school grave sites it was more relevant than ever to take it. I'm going to continue to learn about the Indigenous peoples of Canada and what I can do to facilitate reparations.

Extremely important course now more than ever as we head into a new period of developing relations between Euro-Canadians and the first peoples of the land. Ignorance of Indigenous issues renders colossal disservices to both Indigenous and settler populations.

Great learning at a really good pace. It was interesting and easy to follow, even if the topics themselves were sometimes difficult. I would recommend this course to others as an initial step in understanding Indigeous peoples and their experience in Canada.

This course was a great jumping off point to help me explore how to decolonize education. I liked the detail that the presenters went into (just the right amount, and leaving deeper digging for individuals). Thanks so much for this rich learning opportunity.

Before this course, I thought I had an idea of Indigenous history and current challenges, but I really didn’t know a thing. My eyes have been opened! Thank you so much to the people who put this enlightening course together. Their efforts are much appreciated.

A very generous offering. The minimum background knowledge for anyone settled & settling in "Canada". Greatly appreciated the accessibility and quality of this course, which engages the most pertinent and pressing issues of our past, present, and future times.

I really enjoyed taking this course and highly recommend it.

It is shameful how little I knew about the Indigenous People of Canada, and this course was only the start of my learning journey and how I can be a better ally to Indigenous and marginalised people.

I have learned so much by taking this course, living close to first nations my entire life in the Lək̓ʷəŋən unceeded traditional territory my close relationships have all most disappeared, now I have a good place to start the work on renewing those.

Thank you

This course is an introduction to learning more and being open to hear and relish the history of indigenous members of Canada. I appreciated the content as being very diverse, descriptive, interactive in holding my attention and sharing such important truths.

I wasn't very aware of what the settlers have done to the Indigenous People and this course was a great introduction to the horror of how they were treated. Every Canadian should take this course and learn how badly they have been and continue to be treated.

This course material was easy to engage with, insightful and accountable for a history that has been missed by the public education system. I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn about indigenous cultures from professionals in their field. Thank you.

Thank you to everyone involved in making this course. I learned so much and will take so much away from what was shared throughout. Hopefully more people will sign on and take it so that positive changes can be made towards the Indigenous Peoples of Canada.

I had very little knowledge of Canada's Indigenous history or current situation before doing this course.. I learned a ton and have a much broader appreciation and desire to be an ally. The course is a good overview and is easily digestible and informative.

This was a well presented, interesting and very informative course. I learned much that i did not know before and will be sharing information about this course and the programme offered at the University of Alberta with friends and colleagues. Thanks so much!

We learned so much from taking this course, helping overcome the deep ignorance we had regarding Indigenous culture and the history of how Indigenous peoples were treated in Canadian law, society, economics, etc. Thank you for putting this course together.

I worked with the federal government on specific claims for about a decade. What a difference it would have made had I known everything I learned here going into that work. Thank you so much for an excellent course. I enjoyed it thoroughly and learned a lot.

I knew so little about Indigenous Canada prior to taking this course. I appreciate the time, thought and material that was put forward to provide me with what is likely still just a basic understanding, but much better than what I had coming in to the course

I have learned so much from this course. Being an immigrant I must say that I knew very little about Canada's history. I now have knowledge that I feel ready to build on and share with others. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is living in Canada!

I am so grateful that this course exists - I've learned a lot and I feel hopeful that the Indigenous community in Canada will thrive in future and that the horrors of the past may someday be healed, never to be forgotten but never to be repeated. Thank you.
