Guiding Question:   What is the difference between the words, "indigenous" and "First Nations" and "aboriginal"?

Indigenous is a general term.... internationally accepted.
Wanna be more specific???    Use one of these 3 terms:
1.  First Nations
2.  Metis
3. Inuit or Inuk
If you do not know what nation a person belongs to.... ask them.
"Aboriginal"is an OK word.   But it is slowly fading away

List of main ideas: 
- The northern part of Canada where Indigenous people live has a worst unemployment rate than Sudan, an infant mortality worse than Russia and an appalling injustice. 
- Imagining your daughter getting raped and drugged by an older man, your spouse getting kidnapped by a violent criminal or even getting arrested by a officer and instead of taking you to the police station he starts hitting and mocking you. Highly unlikely scenarios that could happen in Canada right? Well for indigenous people these are not hypothetical situations, these are pretty descriptions of their life in Canada.
- There are two Canadas, the one that everybody sees where you live a happy life, not worried about anything bad happening to your family, and the other Canada that most people don't know about where horrors occur almost every day. 

Awnser to guiding question: In this article, Scott Gilmore describes the injustices in Canada and how Indigenous people are badly mistreated. ]]> 2019-03-22 13:47:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sofia_zco/ayir3or0w6dz/wish/344210361 Listen to the spirits sofia_zco https://padlet.com/sofia_zco/ayir3or0w6dz/wish/344215819 document 5 :  A Seat in the Garden.

“Seven generations of healing” Conversation with Christy Jordan-Fenton about the lasting effects of the residential school system,   A blog post by Jacjie Hansen of Amnesty International 



Guiding question :   According to activist Christy Jordan-Fenton, how did the residential school system cause the deep social problems within Indigenous communities today?

List of main ideas :
- the impact of residential schools on the community
- the mindset it instilled in the people who attended them
- the problem it caused in future generations

Answer to guiding question : The kids grew up without any nurturing, love or a support system so they were unable to give that to their own kids, causing a horrible cycle. They also learned that women were sinful beings which ruined women's self-esteem and caused the men to mistreat them. They did not learn any life skills so they left unable to get good jobs. Reintegrating to their community was almost impossible
