We All Stand Together
initiative of Free the Children and the Martin Aboriginal Education Initiative
From February 24 to March 7, 2014, a new daily fact about Aboriginal Peoples’ culture, experiences, rights and history will be posted here. Each fact will be accompanied by background information to help you dig deeper to gain a better understanding of the experiences of Aboriginal Peoples. You can have it emailed to you too.
Why should you join the conversation?
1,400,685 people across Canada identified themselves as either First Nations, Métis, or Inuit. Together, Canada’s Aboriginal peoples comprise the fastest growing segment of Canada’s population, with youth making up a large proportion. This generation of youth is an essential part of Canada’s future. It’s time to learn from our past and build a future together.
