Thank you for this. Beautifully presented, well rounded, I am embarrassed to think of how little I knew before, but I'm glad I do know. This course is an inspiration to dig deeper into many topics.

T​o truly heal as a nation, we must all walk the path of reconciliation. The first step is education. Gratitude to University of Alberta for lighting the way by unpacking Canada's complicated history.
