Comfort and growth cannot co-exist and that is true for this course. But in the uncomfortableness lies the truth. I am honoured to have had the opportunity to learn more about the true history of Turtle Island.

Wonderful course! I hope there is an update soon to include more recent examples to remind us all how important it is to support, listen to, and understand the people who cared for this land before it was stolen.

It was a great pleasure to take this on line course. I've learnt so much and I'm proud to learn as much as I can and I look forward to more on line learning.

warm regards

Very well put together, informative course. This history needs to be taught at the high school level to ensure more people know and understand the history of our indigenous people and the true history of Canada.

I really enjoyed this course. I learned so much more than what was taught in school. I got the whole picture and what really happened.

Only wish that I had had the money to get the certificate when I started it.

This is an excellent way to learn about the history of our shared land. As a settler, it made me reflect deeply about my responsibilities to Truth and to Reconciliation. I learned that my learning will never end.

This course was more informative then what I have learnt in school about Indigenous Canadian History. I am really grateful this course was offered. I have already recommended to a few people to take the course.

well informative, I am glad I took this course! thank you for making it accessible to those who cannot afford to take this during their degree and provide those who completed their degree a chance to learn more!

I am grateful this course was developed! I believe this is something all Canadians (who are old enough to have been educated in our false, colonial curriculum should learn a more honest history of this county.

Exceptional intro course! really looking forward to starting to learn more about First Nations Peoples and hope I can find some more educational material that relates speciffic to more local examples here in BC.

Hi, I'm glad I took this course. I learned so much. It was a lot of information and so much more than that. It took me more time than it stated to complete each week, but that is the way I learn. Thank you.

I learned a lot from this course. I wish we had the chance to go in more depth. The conversations were all very interesting. My eyes have been opened about many things and I am so grateful for this knowledge.

This is the type of content that should be representated in the High School curiculum. Knowledge is power and we must learn the true history of Canada in order to reconcile Indigenous communities and colonisers.

What an amazing course filled with information that i feel everyone should partake in to better understand indigenous peoples history, struggles, and continued battles to preserve there land, values and culture.

So informative and well done! I feel that I have gained more of an understanding of indigenous culture, worldview, and history while recognizing the devastating impact of colonial culture upon our First Nations.

Excellent course that provides a great foundation for learning about Indigenous cultures and worldviews. This course was eye-opening and should really be taken by every Canadian. I highly recommend this course!

So helpful and wonderfully administered. This makes me proud of the institutional efforts to enact pillars of the TRC and hopefully, this education will bolster my actions and duties as a settler in this nation.

I thought I knew a great deal of the [Canadian] First Nations history and story. I was wrong! This was very well prepared and presented. I am that much better for taking this course as a Canadian. Thank you.

I found this course to be well structured and highly informative. It has inspired me to learn more about the history of Canada's Indigenous peoples and how this impacts our modern nation to nation relationships.

This is truly worth the time ! Thank you for bringing this resource to those of us who thought we already were well informed. I'll strongly recommend it to my community of friends and family.

WELL DONE :)

Thanks

This course was an excellent learning opportunity. I was able to learn and understand about the Indigenous Peoples in Canada. It was an eye opener in regards to what colonialism can do to a culture and a nation.

Learned an incredible amount and extremely thankful for this course.

Thank you Dr. Tracy Bear & Dr. Paul Gareau and the many people's stories and efforts.

Would like to know what is next for all people involved.

Always enjoy these courses. Excellent. Very enjoyable without being overwhelming. The Fist Nation Languages are offered at U o T for free I've heard. I'm just an old man trying to keep his marbles together.

This was a great course to give me a good grounding in understanding the history, present and future of Indigenous Canada. Loved that I could complete this in my own time and ahead of schedule. Thank you UofA!

Wonderful and sometimes provocative history of the Indigenous people. I now appreciate your fight for justice for ownership of territorial lands and keenness to maintain your culture in a difficult environment.
