Therefore, not all materials which contain negative biases have been eliminated from this bibliography.Teachers are urged, however, to preview all materials to determine their suitability.The following guidelines are designed to assist in identifying biases involving culture, religion, sex, age, and physical and mental capacities. For convenience and ease of reference, these guidelines have been divided into two broad sections which include several categories. I Historical Accuracy and Balance' Concreteness and Inclusiveness 1. (a) Texts should identify the source of information wherever statements purport to be factual,in order to minimize editorializing,generalization, vagueness and ambiguity.In the event that original source material is unavailable, students should be made aware that the view presented is an interpretation of the facts. (b) Where actual documents are available, reference should be made to them with special attention being given to presentation of different points of view, should these exist. 2. Accounts of a particular event should clearly indicate that they reflect the perceptions, attitudes, language, concerns, setting, and times of the event. 3. The subject matter should be dealt with in a balanced way in order to cover multiple aspects of the event or situation including the contributions of various people or groups and their popular or unpopular positions, different cultural approaches, controversial viewpoints, varying roles and occupations. 4. Subject matter specifically dealing with vocational and occupational roles should provide information about as wide a spectrum of opportunities available in society as is possible,

  • Crowfoot.Pdf
    Instructional Outline for Social Studies 9 An Alliance Betrayed A short history of Treaty 7 On September 12, 1877, Chief Crowfoot of the Siksika tribe (Blackfoot) along with chiefs from other tribes signed Treaty 7 along the banks of the Bow River in Southern Alberta. According to the Canadian Encyclopedia, “Aboriginal treaties in Canada are constitutionally recognized agreements between the Crown and Aboriginal people.” Commissioner David Laird, few days before the signing, commented: "In a very few years, the buffalo will probably be all destroyed, and for this reason the queen wishes to help you to live in the future in some other way.” The government depended on Crowfoot’s diplomacy to negotiate with the other chiefs. The government promised that, in exchange for giving up their land, the tribes would have the right to hunt and trap on the “tract surrendered,” the First Nations people would be taught how to grow grain and raise cattle, and they would be given financial assistance and protection. After negotiating the terms of Treaty 7, Chief Crowfoot delivered a speech on behalf of the Blackfoot people: “While I speak, be kind and patient. I have to speak for my people, who are numerous, and who rely upon me to follow that course which in the future will tend to their good. The plains are large and wide. We are the children of the plains, it is our home, and the buffalo has been our food always. I hope you look upon the Blackfeet, Bloods and Sarcees as your children now, and that you will be indulgent and charitable to them.

    ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s.

    A BRIEF HISTORY of OUR RIGHT to SELF-GOVERNANCE Pre-Contact to Present A BRIEF HISTORY of OUR RIGHT to SELF-GOVERNANCE Pre-Contact to Present The first nine chapters for this publication were prepared for the National Centre for First Nations Governance (NCFNG) by Professor Kent McNeil in March, 2007. Kent McNeil has taught at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto since 1987. He specializes in Indigenous rights, especially in Canada, Australia, and the United States. The Duty to Consult Aboriginal People was prepared by NCFNG research staff. NCFNG supports First Nations as they seek to implement effective, independent governance. The Centre delivers nation rebuilding services to First Nation communities across Canada. NCFNG is an independent service and research organization that is governed and staffed by experienced First Nation professionals. 4 Introduction For thousands of years, the aboriginal people of what is now Canada organized themselves as sovereign nations, with what was essentially gov - ernmental jurisdiction over their lands, including property rights.Those rights — of governance and property — were trampled in the stampede of European settlement, colonization and commercial interests. But they were never lost or extinguished. Read this brief historic account of the rights inherited by citizens of today’s First Nations, Learn about the erosion of property and governance rights through the dark periods of colonization and marginalization, and ultimately, their affirmation in Canada’s constitution and recognition in Canadian
