What does it mean to be native? I went into this project pondering this question. The answer I got wasn 't as I expected, it was coded and confusing just like the people I observed. When you think native one might think feathers, yelling, horses and shooting things with bows and arrows. While there may be feathers and yelling these isn 't as much as you think. I wanted to learn about this culture and the way its people live because this is my heritage that I was never able to be a part of. You…

It contains a significant amount of scientific text with such significant terms as necropsy, postmortem, Inuit, Basque, forceps, indelible and the numerous scientific names. A Text Talk vocabulary presentation, allowing students to interact with the words, as suggested by Roberta Linder in Text Talk with Picture Books, prior to reading would help elevate…

For centuries the Aboriginal peoples of Canada, comprised of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit populations, have been the victims of gross inequity relative to immigrants of European descent. After an era of colonialism left them decimated, these ‘Indians’ were then subject to explicit, often violent assimilation endorsed and enforced by the Government of Canada. State and church-run institutions profoundly damaged Aboriginal culture, perverted family and community ties, and resulted in loss…

A great way to explore the rivers, lakes, canals and other waters is through the use of boats. Canoeing and Kayaking are two floating crafts that may take anyone to places in the waters that are even difficult to access by any other means. Canoes and kayaks maybe confusing to some but its easy really easy to distinguish one from the other. Kayaking and canoeing both require a paddle for propulsion and steering. The most noticeable difference is the structure of the boats. Kayaks have a…

Economic interest groups are ubiquitous and the most prominent in all countries.

There are several different kinds of economic interests: business groups (e.g., the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, the Confederation of British Industry, and the Nestlé Corporation, headquartered in Switzerland and with operations throughout the world), labour groups (e.g., IG Metall…

and academic spheres. The imprisonment of ethnic minorities at a higher rate than their White counterpart occurs in most western nation (La Prairie, 1999; Tonry, 1995, 1997). In Canada, the overly represented groups are Aboriginals (First Nations, Inuit, and Metis) and Black Canadians relative to their incidence in the general population (Roberts & Stenning, 2001; Owusu-Bempah & Wortley, 2013). The over-representation of Indigenous Canadians in the penitentiary has been widely documented both in…

Introduction “Selma,” I think while meaning well, is another piece of counter revolutionary, ruling class propaganda. It is like a “how not to manual” in how not to make revolution, then and now. I was an activist in the days in question in this movie and all the thousands of revolutionary voices that were raised, back in the day, are more thoroughly crushed in this film than all the might of U.S. imperialist military, police, intelligence and public opinion creating machines…
