Thank You...... 31 “The and Downie families enthusiastically grant DWF full permission to share the experiences of their beloved family members, Chanie and Gord, with you. We hope you will honour their legacies and act to make their dream of making a better, more equitable country, a reality. Do Something.” A Message from the Families

Chi miigwetch, thank you, to everyone who has signed up for the Legacy Schools program and continues to support the & Fund (DWF). We believe it is so important for all peoples in Canada to understand the true history and impact of residential schools, so the distinct cultures and strengths of Indigenous Peoples throughout all of Canada can be better acknowledged and appreciated today. Even during these trying times, you have shown the strength to continue to “Do Something”. Thank you for joining us on this journey towards reconciliation.

“This pandemic teaches us one thing only: to love one another. One of the greatest teachings, from one who is greater than us – In the Wenjack families’ culture we call him Creator. We believe we have strayed from the original teachings, and that we need to be reminded of what that was. Our mother always asked her children to cover their mouth and nose when they played outside in the winter, so the concept of mask wearing is not new to Indigenous communities. The Elders understand the protection that isolation can provide as well as protecting yourself from the elements.” – Pearl (Wenjack) Achneepineskum

We thank you for continuing to share Chanie and Gord’s experiences and helping to keep their legacies alive by being aware, continuing to educate, and connecting with one another though reconciliACTIONs.

Both of our families have witnessed the beautiful work being done by Legacy Schools. Students, staff, teachers and communities have sent us their work and we continue to be amazed every day as the program continues to grow and the passion deepens. We love visiting your schools, communities and events and we value the gifts sent to us. Such incredible drawings, poems, essays, art, videos, songs, Walk for Wenjack photos, and letters all full of compassion and love. None of this would be possible without all of you.

In Unity,

Mike Downie & Harriet Visitor Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund In the Present

Chanie’s sisters still reside in Ogoki Post in Northern . Much like the Downies, many of whom still live in Kingston or , they enjoy hearing from Legacy Schools students and staff. Your letters, drawings, songs and stories are shared with them and inspire all of us at DWF every day.

Please share your work with us. Your work directly impacts us and is the driving force behind a national movement of reconciliation.

All my relations

“All my relations” is a holistic philosophy that has guided the Indigenous way of life since time immemorial. At the heart of “all my relations” is the importance of the interrelationships among everything from the unknowns of the cosmos to all forms of life, animate and inanimate, on Mother Earth. Indigenous ways of knowing and being are centered around respect, relevance, reciprocity and responsibility to maintain the balance of these interconnections.

All my relations. Inogiamit nunattinit ikKasugiaKavugut (Inutittut). Msit No’kmaq (Mi’kmaq). Nii’kinaaganaa (). Kakina ni Dodem (Algonquin). Niw_hk_m_kanak (Cree).

Your work directly impacts us and is the driving force behind a national movement of reconciliation. 6 Mental Health Support

Topics and materials used in educating people about the residential school system can include highly sensitive subject matter and may cause heightened emotional responses from any number of people. It takes courage to talk about your feelings and it helps when others understand what life can be like for you.

The impact and effects of residential schools still exist today and are experienced by many Indigenous Peoples, families, and communities. For this reason, subjects and material may be even more difficult and upsetting for Indigenous students, teachers, staff, and those directly affected by intergenerational trauma caused by residential schools.

Be aware that emotional experiences can be shared, strong feelings may present themselves, and uncomfortable questions may be asked. Always review material and be familiar with the content prior to beginning any presentations relating to this subject matter. Be certain that everyone knows how to access support.

Health Canada provides a free 24-hour crisis line for Survivors and their families affected by the residential school system (also available in French).

The 24-HOUR residential school support line: 1-866-925-4419.

Cultural Safety

Cultural Safety originated within the New Zealand health care system. It was developed to improve care and create respectful relations with Maori (Indigenous Peoples). Cultural Safety takes into consideration historical and social contexts to address inequities, and is not solely focused on simply understanding “Indigenous culture”. It is an overall approach to being more comprehensive in that it does not just focus on supporting individuals but improving the system as a whole. Its aim is to provide a meaningful system of care.

These conversations are not easy. We recommend that educators prepare themselves and their students for these difficult conversations. Some teachers take the time to let students know that this may be upsetting.

Many educators have described these conversations as “getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.” We are all learning together and we’re here to help if you need us. Building connection is one of DWF’s pillars so no one needs to teach these subjects without support and education.

DWF was created out of two families Our Mission coming together to make a change, uphold Chanie and Gord’s legacies, Inspired by Chanie’s story and Gord’s call to action to build a better Canada, DWF aims to build cultural and create a pathway on the journey understanding and create a path toward reconciliation toward reconciliation. between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

DWF is part of musician Gord Downie’s legacy and embodies his commitment, and that of both the Our Vision Downie and Wenjack families, to call Canadians to action in solidarity with Indigenous Peoples of this Improving the lives of Indigenous Peoples by building land. The goal of DWF is to continue the conversation awareness, education, and connections between all that began with Chanie Wenjack’s residential school peoples in Canada. story, and to support the reconciliation process through awareness, education, and connection.

When Gord heard the story of Chanie Wenjack, a “Positive change is happening young Anishnaabe boy who was sent to residential – the next generation of young school in 1963 and never made it home alive, he was Canadians will understand inspired to “Do Something” to try to improve the way the true history of Indigenous Indigenous Peoples are still treated in Canada. Peoples in Canada.” When a person or community tries to repair the - Pearl (Wenjack) Achkneepineskum damage done to the lives of Indigenous Peoples by residential schools and colonization in Canada, it is called an act of reconciliation or reconciliACTION. 9 Welcome to the Legacy Schools Program

The Legacy Schools program is a national initiative to engage, inspire and empower Indigenous and non-Indigenous educators, clubs, groups, staff and students to take part in reconciliation everywhere in Canada.

We provide educational resources and program development for people to teach about residential schools, as well as the interests, rights and perspectives of Indigenous Peoples and communities in Canada.

Online Resources

We are always working to make our Legacy Schools toolkit better so our resources are developed on an ongoing basis. Legacy Schools online resources will be continuously updated throughout the year. LegacySchoolsResources.ca.

The resources provided are suggestions that educators and community members can use throughout all curriculum from pre-school to post-secondary and beyond. They are supplied from a variety of sources and should be used at your discretion after review.

We have added a FRENCH section online and continue to expand the variety of resources available. If you have created your own lesson plans, please feel free to share them with us. We’re hoping to include a section of educator created, easy to use resources for Legacy Schools.

Legacy Schools Toolkits & Booster Kits

Legacy Schools materials are updated annually and mailed out to schools each September as a “Booster Kit”. Booster Kits aim to inspire ongoing learning and understanding while fostering the need to constantly change and update the conversation around reconciliation.

Legacy Schools educators are advised to review resource materials thoroughly before teaching subject matter to their students and youth in order to determine what would be suitable for their class, club, group or community.

Chanie Wenjack

Chanie Wenjack was born on January 19, 1954 on the Marten Falls First Nation Reserve, also known as Ogoki Post - a remote community in Northwestern Ontario. In 1963 at the age of nine, Chanie, along with three of his sisters, were sent to the Cecilia Jeffrey Indian Residential School in , Ontario.

In 1966, at the age of 12, Chanie ran away from Cecilia Jeffrey, attempting to reunite with his family who were 600 kilometres away in Ogoki Post. Nine other children ran away that same day, but all were caught within 24 hours. Chanie’s body was found beside the railway tracks on October 22, 1966, a week after he fled. He succumbed to starvation and exposure. In his pocket was nothing but a glass jar with seven wooden matches. Chanie fell victim to Canada’s legacy of colonization of Indigenous Peoples. Chanie’s story, tragically, is like so many stories of Indigenous children in this country.

Why did Chanie and three of his sisters have to leave Ogoki Post to attend school?

Residential schools were government-operated institutions aimed at separating Indigenous children from their families and traditions in order to assimilate them into a colonized Canada. In all, about 150,000 First Nations, Inuit, and Métis children were removed from their communities and forced to attend the schools. While attending, many children were subjected to significant emotional, sexual, and physical abuse. The last federally run school closed in 1996. This is Canadian history, yet many people in Canada remain unaware of this part of our national identity.

Gord Downie

Gord Downie was a non-Indigenous, Canadian rock star, storyteller, and poet. He was the frontman and lyricist for the band from 1984 until his passing in 2017.

In August of 2016, Gord asked all Canadians to look at the true history of this country and to “Do Something” to change the state of relations for the better. Following that, Gord released his last solo project, Secret Path, which includes an album, graphic novel, and film. It tells the story of Chanie Wenjack, and calls attention to the challenges faced by Indigenous Peoples as a result of the Canadian residential school system. We are pleased to offer you the graphic novel in your Legacy School toolkit for use in the classroom. The film is available at: https://gem.cbc.ca/series/the-secret-path/all/9b3ea985-cccf-45a8-9c87-8745cbcba48f.

In December of 2016 at the Assembly of First Nations in Gatineau, Québec, National Chief Perry Bellegarde honoured Gord with an eagle feather, a symbol of the Creator above, for his support of Indigenous Peoples in Canada. Gord was also given an honorary Indigenous name, Wicapi Omani, which is Lakota for “man who walks among the stars”.

In October 17, 2017, Gord Downie passed away surrounded by his children and family. His messages of hope and powerful calls to action remain. Gord’s legacy to create lasting, positive change in Canada lives on through you.

In August of 2016, Gord asked all Canadians to look at the true history of this country and to “Do Something” to change the state of Indigenous and non-Indigenous relations for the better. 12 “Do Something.”

Each Legacy School is asked to organize reconciliACTIONs throughout the school year. A reconciliACTION is a meaningful action that moves reconciliation forward.

ReconciliACTIONs will be unique to each school and community, and may incorporate events, cultural activities, updated inclusivity policies, learning opportunities, fundraising, and/or professional development to support awareness and appreciation of Indigenous cultures and traditions.

ReconciliACTIONs may take place at any time during the year, but we encourage Legacy Schools to join in a national movement of awareness and understanding during Secret Path Week, which takes place annually from October 17-22.

Indigenous Language

DWF sometimes uses Anishinaabe language, practices, and traditions in our materials to honour Chanie and the Wenjack family’s culture. We hope to include more Indigenous languages as we develop further programming. Language Throughout this Guidebook

Please note, with the exception of the section regarding the Indian Act, we have excluded the term "Indian" even when referencing official names of schools and government documents. The term can be considered offensive. Aboriginal has also been replaced with the internationally accepted term “Indigenous”. The term Indigenous includes First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. Explicit Lyrical Content

Please be sure to read the provided materials thoroughly before introducing this content. When Gord Downie wrote Secret Path he wrote it from the heart and did not foresee more than 2,700 educators using it in their classrooms. The song "Secret Path" contains an explicit lyric. It is up to the individual teacher and/ or group leader to ensure that they have a good understanding of the material before teaching any lessons, and to determine what is appropriate for their classroom, club, group and/or school community.

A reconciliACTION is a meaningful action that moves reconciliation forward. 13

The Secret Path Secret Path acknowledges a dark part of Canada’s history—the long-suppressed mistreatment of Mike Downie introduced Gord to Chanie Wenjack’s Indigenous children and families by the residential story when he shared “The Lonely Death of Charlie school system in the hope of starting our country on a Wenjack” by Ian Adam. https://www.macleans.ca/ road to reconciliation. society/the-lonely-death-of-chanie-wenjack/.

After learning of Chanie’s experience, Gord and his Secret Path Week brothers went to Ogoki Post to meet Pearl and the Secret Path Week is an annual, national movement Wenjack family. Together they agreed to “Do Something.” commemorating the legacies of Gord Downie and Gord began a personal project to tell Chanie’s story and Chanie Wenjack. The aim is to inspire our Legacy share it with others. The project began as ten poems Schools, Legacy Spaces partners, and all Canadians written by Gord as he imagined what it would have to use the week of October 17 - 22 to answer Gord been like to be Chanie. These poems later became the Downie’s call to action “Do Something” by creating lyrics to the Juno-award winning album Secret Path. and engaging in reconciliACTIONs.

Students learned about different Indigenous cultures and the importance of the eagle feather. The students painted this mural to honour the significance of coming together to move reconciliation forward. DWF Programs

The programs DWF offers aim to honour Chanie Wenjack’s legacy as a strong and determined youth who refused to give up his Anishinaabe identity. Our programs also honour Gord Downie’s legacy as a person dedicated to creating lasting, positive change in Canada.

The Legacy Spaces Program

The Legacy Spaces program provides an opportunity for different organizations including businesses, municipalities, post-secondary institutions, and more to play an important role in our journey towards reconciliation in the workplace and surrounding community. As of June 2021, 34 organizations have signed on as Legacy Spaces partners, with 26 active spaces and 17 pre-launch spaces, located in 19 cities in 7 provinces and territories. We are continuously working to grow the program and ensure reconciliACTION follows us into our adult life and reaches those who did not have access to these materials in their earlier education.

The Legacy Schools Program

The Legacy Schools program, which continues to grow, is an opportunity for classrooms, schools, clubs and youth groups to lead the movement in raising awareness of the history and impact of the residential school system on Indigenous Peoples. Youth Ambassador Program

The Youth Ambassador program aims to offer youth the opportunity to gain practical work, leadership and networking experience, while learning about DWF and Canada’s true history of residential schools. The program is a paid internship that takes place online.

Artist Ambassador Program

The Artist Ambassador program brings Indigenous and non- Indigenous musicians and other artists into high schools across Canada to inspire student leadership and move forward the journey of reconciliation in school communities.

Artists share their art, music and stories through workshops and/or performances, and engage students in learning and conversations about reconciliation. High schools hosting Artist Ambassadors are also encouraged to have students share their own stories, art, and reconciliACTIONs with their guests.

DWF LIVE

Our digital series was initially brought to life at the outset of COVID-19, when Legacy Schools shifted to remote learning. It provided us with a way to bring our community together virtually and reach a wider audience as we invited Artist Ambassadors to join us in an intimate conversation or teaching. It has since become an integral part of our programming, and each 30-60 minute video is open to all ages and can be viewed on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube live or at a later time. These sessions also work to support artists, activists, musicians, and more during times of isolation, and we hope to continue to grow the program even as restrictions are lifted.

Artists share their art, music and stories through workshops and/or performances, and engage students in learning and conversations about reconciliation. Range Lake North School Yellowknife, 16 NT – To commemorate Secret Path Week, they hosted a school-wide Zoom visit from author Monique Gray, a group from the Aboriginal Sports Circle, and listened to a performance from Leela Gilday. At Legacy Schools the end of the week, they held a Walk for Wenjack and did a Toonie Drive ReconciliACTIONs fundraiser for DWF.

We ask you to recognize that change starts with every single one of us, and that everybody can make an impact.

Here are some examples of reconciliACTIONs from Legacy Schools throughout Canada. We hope these wonderful examples inspire you to “Do Something”!

Walk for Wenjack

Everybody has their own reason to Walk for Wenjack. For some, it may be a moment to honour Chanie. For others, it may be an opportunity to raise awareness of the true history of residential schools. Each Walk for Wenjack is unique.

This year due to health restrictions due to the pandemic and the on-going uncertainty of mass gatherings, we’d like to encourage individuals to Walk for Wenjack remotely when possible while sharing your stories and photos with us on socials @DownieWenjack #WalkforWenjack.

Let’s come together as a nation and walk the over 600 kilometres Chanie Wenjack needed to get home. Can you walk the 600km Chanie was trying to cover during the entire month of October? Share your stories with us and the Wenjack family. This is a sad time for the Wenjack and Downie families, but your words and acts of reconciliACTION give them hope as Chanie and Gord’s legacy continues. To register for your Walk for Wenjack visit: https://downiewenjack.ca/our-work/walk-for-wenjack/.

For over 150 years, residential schools operated in Canada. Over 150,000 children attended these schools; many never returned. Often underfunded and overcrowded, these schools were used as a tool of assimilation by the Canadian state and churches. Thousands of students suffered physical and sexual abuse. All suffered from loneliness and a longing to be home with their families. The damages inflicted by these schools continue to this day. In 2009, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada began a multi-year process to listen to survivors, communities and others affected by the residential school system. The resulting collection of statements, documents and other materials now forms the heart of the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation. (National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, 2020)

The cumulative impact of residential schools is a legacy of unresolved trauma passed from generation to generation and has had a profound effect on the relationship between Indigenous Peoples and other Canadians. 22 The United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP)

The United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) is an international document adopted by the United Nations (U.N.) on September 13, 2007, to enshrine (according to Article 43) the rights that “constitute the minimum standards for the survival, dignity, and well-being of the Indigenous Peoples of the world.”

The Declaration is the product of almost 25 years of deliberation by U.N. member states and Indigenous groups to protect the collective rights of Indigenous Peoples that may not be addressed in other human rights charters and emphasizes individual rights. UNDRIP was adopted by the General Assembly on Thursday, 13 September 2007, by a majority of 144 states in favour, 4 votes against (Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States) and 11 abstentions.

Since UNDRIP was adopted by the General Assembly, the four countries voting against have reversed their position and now support the Declaration. We are happy to provide you with this document for use in your classrooms and schools in our Legacy Schools toolkits.

In 1876 the federal government of Canada enacted the "Indian Act", a federal law that governs all matters pertaining to First Nations bands, schools, status, reserves, and treaties. It allows the federal government to regulate and administer the day- to-day affairs of registered Indians and reserve communities. This authority has created governing structures on First Nations communities in the form of band councils and how health, living standards and education are established on reserve.

Ms. Donamo's Kindergarten students set a goal of 900 laps around the dry pond to While the Indian Act has had many amendments Walk over 450KM for Chanie Wenjack at James Short Memorial School in Calgary, AB. since it was first passed in 1876, it largely retains its original form.

The Indian Act is administered by Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC). The Indian Act is a part of a long history of assimilation policies that intended to terminate the cultural, social, economic, and political distinctiveness of Indigenous Peoples by absorbing them into mainstream Canada.

While the Constitution states that Indigenous Peoples in Canada are First Nations, Inuit, and Métis, the Indian Act does not apply to Métis and the 1951 Indian Act specifically excludes Inuit from its operation.

Questions for inquiry/consideration:

1. How does today's Indian Act differ from when it 6. Why would the Indian Act consider Indigenous was first created under PM John A. Macdonald? Peoples as wards of the state, labelling them as incapable of managing their own affairs? 2. Why were “Indian Agents”, acting under the authority of the Indian Act, able to replace 7.

What other assimilation policies were enacted Peoples from appearing in any public dance, against Inuit and Métis? show, exhibition, stampede or pageant wearing traditional regalia? 5. Why did the Indian Act deny Indigenous Peoples the right to vote in federal and provincial elections from Confederation until the 1950's (Inuit) and 1960's (First Nations)?

Inuit should never be referred to as the Inuit people because in the Inuktitut language the term Inuit translates to "the people". 24 Letter to Parent(s)/Guardian(s):

Here is an example of a letter used to let parents, guardians and community know about the importance of addressing residential schools and the impact they continue to have on Canada today. Feel free to use this example.

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

In order to properly address the negative impact of residential schools and begin our journey toward reconciliation, the (your school/school board/club/group) will learn about Chanie Wenjack's residential school experience using Secret Path as well as a variety of other resources to amplify Indigenous knowledge and perspective. With permission from Chanie Wenjack’s family, the Secret Path began as a series of poems written by Gord Downie of the Tragically Hip, which became an album and eventually an animated film and graphic novel.

The history of residential schools is a sad part of recent history, but an important one to address in our schools. The well-being of our children and youth will benefit from this true history being taught.

These lessons were developed in response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commision of Canada’s (TRC) 93 Calls to Action. Action 63 addresses the need to develop age-appropriate curriculum about residential schools:

I. Developing and implementing Kindergarten to Grade Twelve curriculum and learning resources on Indigenous Peoples in Canadian history, and the history and legacy of residential schools.

II. Sharing information and best practices on teaching curriculum related to residential schools and Indigenous history.

III. Building student capacity for intercultural understanding, empathy, and mutual respect.

IV. Identifying teacher-training needs relating to the above.

We aim to provide students with an appreciation and understanding of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis knowledge and perspectives. We want as many people in Canada to know the truth about residential schools. Only through awareness and education will we be able to truly understand what meaningful reconciliation looks like and “Do Something” to change Canada for the better.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our work, please feel free to contact me at XXXXX.

Thank you,

School Information

For more examples, please visit Legacy Schools Resources at: www.LegacySchoolResources.ca. 25 Education Resources

Selecting Resources

Every school board and each community will have unique protocols to gain support of local Indigenous knowledge and expertise.

To start, educators are encouraged to contact their school board’s Indigenous education instructors, board leads, co-ordinators, support workers, and counsellors who may be able to facilitate the proper protocol and suitable local contacts for your classroom and community. When selecting Indigenous resources for the classroom, educators are responsible for ensuring the resources are culturally relevant, authentic, and are from reputable sources.

Suggestions on determining if a learning resource is suitable for use:

• Indigenous Peoples have been involved in the development and vetting of the resources. • Information accurately reflects Indigenous knowledge, perspectives, and teachings, and you have permission to use it. • Resources reference local Indigenous Peoples in your community, where possible. • Indigenous worldviews and cultural differences between Nations and communities are evident. • Indigenous Peoples are not stereotyped, portraited in a negative tone, given a subtle bias, or paternalism (a sense of non-Indigenous superiority). • The use of language and terminology is appropriate. Indigenous perspective is evident.

If you have additional resources that may be useful, please consider sharing them with DWF so we can make them accessible for other educators. Resources can be sent to [email protected]. Resources can be viewed at: www.LegacySchoolResources.ca. 26 Legacy Schools Displays and Rooms

In answer to Gord’s call to “Do Something” many schools have created physical spaces in their schools to spark conversation about reconciliACTIONs, local Indigenous culture, the meaning of their land acknowledgements and to show off their Legacy School status.
