Nelson is committed to taking action towards reconciliation by collaborating with Indigenous communities to create authentic First Nations, Métis, and Inuit resources that empower educators and inspire Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians to walk humbly together to promote intercultural understanding, empathy and mutual respect.
Junior high students in N.S. get a lesson in history, geography... and reconciliation. @cbccolleenjones shows us how it starts with a huge map -- showing Indigenous territory from coast to coast to coast. @cbchh #CBCNN pic.twitter.com/PedWvDPNRY

Our professional learning team is intentionally creating a myriad of opportunities for all educators from kindergarten to colleges and universities to learn about and act on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action.
Every year on September 30th, we commemorate the survivors of residential schools and remember the children who did not survive. We invite everyone to join the journey toward reconciliation by buying an Orange Shirt with a special design commissioned by an Indigenous artist. For every t-shirt sold, proceeds are donated to a charity supporting Indigenous communities.
Scholarships are awarded to students who have demonstrated academic success, personal strength, and a commitment to preserving Indigenous languages and culture.
We work closely with Indigenous communities to deliver authentic resources that bring their voices and history to Canadian classrooms.
