I am impressed with the way this course was delivered in multiple ways. It took a while for me to get used to listening to stories but I am a better learner now. Every Canadian needs this teaching.

This is an excellent course that I would recommend to everyone in Canada. I learnde a lot about the history or colonization and gained a good understanding of Indigenous issues in contemporary Canada.

Honestly, the best course I've ever followed. I learned a lot and it was really eye opening. It should be mandatory to every citizen and integrated in school curriculum. Thank you for sharing your precious knowledge.

This course encompassed so many crucial aspects and realities of Indigenous peoples in Canada, both historically and in the present day. Everyone in Canada should take a course like this at some point in their lives.

What a privilege to get to learn (for free!) from Indigenous instructors. Excellent content, and wonderful use of storytelling and art. I have recommended this course widely and will continue to do so. Thank you!!

An excellent starting off point for familiarizing oneself with Canadian history with Indigenous peoples, from an Indigenous perspective. Every Canadian, and every member of a colonial society should take this course.

I enjoyed learning more of the facts and actually understanding how the stereotyping and racism is still very much alive and well.
I also, feel that I wish our society could learn to embrace the Indigenous world view.

great introduction into Indigenous culture and history! I loved the artist's comments on her painting at the end of each capsule as well as the testimony from the different teachers. Thank you for doing this for us.

This course was absolutely exceptional. Every politician in Canada should be required to undertake a course in Aboriginal studies. Thank you so much for this informative and at times, very heavy on the heart course.

This course took very complex topics and broke them down so learners could gain the foundational knowledge they need to understand Indigenous history in Canada. Every canadian should be required to take this course!

A fantastic start to a lifelong journey to learn more about the First Nations, Inuit and Métis people of Canada and to better understand the impacts of Colonialism and how we can move forward towards reconciliation.

Excellent discussion of Indigenous history, culture and beliefs. As a 70 year old who considered himself reasonably well informed I found that my understanding and appreciation was greatly enhanced by this course.

Even though it doesnt cover all groups of indigenous people in Canada, I believe this is a great step in the right direction, and I sincerely hope it makes its way into high schools etc. I learned a tonne, thank you

Thank you, this was incredibly informative and I feel that there is just so much more to learn but now I have a place to begin. I hope in the future there may be a course solely for indigenous arts. Again thank you!

I learned so much more about the Indigenous people and their perspectives than I did through traditional Canadian history teachings in the Canadian school system. This course should be a must for everyone in Canada.

The course was informative and worth the investment of time. I liked having the quizzes, but I did find that some of the questions were vague and the answers were not apparent from a review of the course materials.

Though I'd had friends take this course and rave about it, it took Dan Levy to get me to register. I'm so glad I did! In turn, I've convinced about 10 of my friends to sign up. This course has changed me. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic course. Would recommend to anyone wishing to amplify and support the works of our First Peoples of Turtle Island on decolonizing spaces and acknowledging our history. A must-take course for all.

A very good survey or introduction to Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous History in Canada. I wish it had been more in depth, but that was outside of the scope of the course. It's encouraged me to keep learning more.

After studying Indigenous Canada 🍁 my whole view about the country changed and I feel a connection with the Aboriginal people. The course was an eye opener and very enriching in cultural and historical knowledge.

This course was very well presented and eye opening to say the least. I am very disappointed in our education system that so many of us did not receive an actual education in the history and making of our country.

excellent beginners guide to the history of the culture of my Great Grandmothers people, as well as the current and historical frustrations and lessons between Canada's native and colonial peoples and governments.

Thank you for creating this course. I learned so much about Indigenous Canada that was not taught (and probably still isn't) in school when I was young. Thank you for opening our eyes to the real history of Canada.
