Treaty Recognition Week was recently legislated by the Province of Ontario to provide recurring opportunities for teachers to plan learning activities about treaties during the school year.
As Ontario is covered by 46 treaties and other agreements, it is important to recognize the importance of treaties and bring awareness to the treaty relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in the province.
To help you and your students honour our history, we have created a Treaty Video Playlist consisting of the following authoritative and award-winning video programs:
A Requiem for the Canadian Dream
A Way of Living Developed Over Millenia: Edward Metatawabin
An Overview of Residential Schools in Canada
Learning About Treaties in Canada
Profound Lessons from Indigenous Law: John Borrows
