The conversation of reconciliation needs to happen. More steps need to be put in place to improve the relationship between Canada and Indigenous peoples. The first step towards reconciliation is educating the public on Indigenous peoples. Education on these issues is important for youth to improve these problems. If they are not aware of these issues how will they be able to fix them and tackle them? A Reconciliation Pole would bring my community together and show how we support Indigenous people. Supporting Indigenous people and providing them with resources. Reconciliation must happen in Canada and a Reconciliation Pole would drastically help.
I chose this question because it represents who I am and the steps Canada must take to work towards reconciliation.
My favourite part of Canadian history is learning about how our country has come to establish and endorse various human rights principles.
I hope these changes can help the public understand the history of the Indigenous Peoples who lived on this land prior to colonization.
