This is a great starting point for anyone who wants a starting point to learning about the Indigenous communities in Canada. It added to my own learning and understanding of the continuum of systemic racism that underpins the relationship between settler and Indigenous societies.

Very well done and should be part of the K-12 curriculum, coast to coast.

I really enjoyed the artwork sessions at the end of each module. You should look at turning them into prints for sale and using the proceeds to fund indigenous community programs.

Thank you and all the best.

Kudos to the Faculty of Native Studies! You have created an online course that I found really engaging. Thank you for all the work from everyone; I hope my future life demonstrates the wider worldview that I now have, thanks to everyone's stories and art shared in this course.

I feel I have learned a lot and now have much more background knowledge on Indigenous issues and history. It was also very interesting and well put together Having the videos and the words to read after and then the course notes helped

I also enjoyed the Art work

Thank you.

This course should be required by all settler descendants. It has forever changed how I see current issues. The course provided information completely opposite to what I learned in school about the "discovery" of Canada and the treatment of the people that lived here. Thank you!

This course is a must take if you call yourself a resident of Canada. I loved being enriched with this country's history and at the same time saddened by the indigenous peoples' struggle. There's a lot more to learn still but this is a start. Thank you for offering this course.

Incredibly informative, sad but inspiring. As a UK immigrant I believe everyone who wants to become a Canadian Citizen should have to take this course .. and pass :) Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, I wish I had taken this course in 2001 when I arrived In Canada.

I really enjoyed this course - it challenged what I've been taught and made me rethink so much of our history. In particular learning about the roles of women, how they've been disrupted and how Indigenous women continue to grow and thrive in their community is very inspiring.

I am grateful for the opportunity to listen and learn. I see things with a different perspective and will continue my learning. Art, gender, sexuality, politics, women rights from an indigenous perspective. I really had no idea how little perspective I had. Thank you for this.

A very interesting insight into Canadian history and indigeneity - I would recommend it to everyone. The course touches on certain key topics but makes you aware that there is a wealth of more knowledge and understanding we should avail ourselves of. I can't wait to learn more!

This is a fantastic course to get you more familiarized with Indigenous Canada! Whether you have some background knowledge or are a novice, this laid back approach to learning is innovative and fun. Thank you for inspiring me to take more courses relating to Indigenous history!

The program provided me with invaluable insights and understanding into the diverse cultures, traditions, and history of Indigenous peoples together with their contemporary issues. It also deepened my appreciation for the resilience and contributions of indigenous communities.

Thought provoking and challenging, an excellent starting point to begin further discussions about so-called Canada. This course should be a requirement for everyone living/occupying space on Turtle Island! I am grateful for the opportunity to learn more about Canada's history.

Thankyou so much to everyone who created this course. Such generosity!

It has been an excellent introduction to soo many aspects of Indigenous history and contemporary living.

A fantastic foundation, and one whose contents I hope to come to and build on.

With much appreciation

All Canadians should take this course. So much important information that was never taught in school. I am actually sad that I have completed the course as I want to learn more. Thank you to the Faculty for creating such an amazing course and making it available to everyone!!!

Every settler in Canada should take this course and I tell everyone I know to take it. I continue my learning journey and decolonizing work on myself and the systems that I work in. I raise my hands to the intstructors and Native Studies Faculty at the University of Alberta.

This course was fantastic! I learned so much and appreciated not only the instructors' knowledge but their presentation as well. I learned not only an appreciation of the Indigenous peoples of Canada facts and histories that I previously was unaware of. Thank you very much.

Very informative. I enjoyed learning more about all of the First Nations, their culture, struggles, beautiful art and much more. Thank you for the opportunity to participate with this course material and share in the learning of one of Canada's most important groups of people.

It should be an obligation that all Canadians take this course! It provides a great opportunity to reflect on the histories, customs, traditions, and issues that have and continue to affect Indigenous people in Canada. Thank you for making this course available and accessible!

Incredibly enlightening and inspirational. The truths, hardships and bravery of the Indigenous peoples have transformed my soul. I am forever changed and humbled. Thank you for clarifying my historical lessons and teaching me so much more about history than I have ever learnt.

Thank you so much to Tracey Bear and her skillful team that created and delivered this primer course on Indigenous Peoples of Canada. I thoroughly enjoyed every module. I've also recommended this course to many friends and family, and sincerely hope many of them enjoy it too!!

Indigenous Canada is a very well laid out course and has given me a very good overview of the history of Indigenous people in Canada. As I am an art teacher I enjoyed the reflections on art and how art /crafts were woven into the history and storytelling of indigenous people.

Excellent course that should actually be taught in schools. I hope enough people stumble onto this course as I did as it is something everyone in this country should study to get a better understanding about these issues that do affect all of us who deem ourselves "Canadians".

I have really enjoyed this course, and am so glad that I was able to take advantage of this opportunity to learn more about both the history and the current complexities faced by indigenous people in Canada. This course was well organized, and I appreciated the format as well

The course is absolutely fantastic. It will change your perspective and is very informative in the histories, art, and culture of First Nations. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to further their knowledge on Indigenous Canada and wanting to gain personal growth.
