“The primary objective of smudging in schools is aimed at creating cultural awareness and aiding in the process of gaining a sense of cultural identity” #TreatyEdCamp

Smudging needs to happen in the schools, we can’t take them outside, that’s not in the Spirit of Reconciliation #TreatyEdCamp

“This is why we smudge - it takes all the negative and gives us a positive feel” #TreatyEdCamp

“It is precisely because education was the primary tool of oppression of Aboriginal people, and miseducation of all Canadians, that we have concluded that educations holds the key to reconciliation” - Murray Sinclair #TreatyEdCamp

Today’s word to consider not using re: First Nations “Indigenous.” It fails to capture the distinctness of First Nations. Use the Nation name or First Nations or for all original Peoples in Canada- First Nations, Metis and Inuit
