Speakers: Jody Prohar and Leanne Loranger On this episode, Jody and Leanne discuss the new Health Equity and Anti-Discrimination and Indigenous Cultural Safety & Humility standards of practice and the recently published Indigenous Cultural Safety, Health Equity, and Anti-Discrimination guide. Over the last four years, the College of Physiotherapists of Alberta has been on a learning journey. We began our work in response to two key events, the publication of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action, and the events of the summer of 2020, including the murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement. In October 2024 the College announced that updated standards of practice have been approved and take effect on January 1, 2025, including the Health Equity and Anti-Discrimination and the Indigenous Cultural Safety and Humility standards. On September 30, 2024, the College also published the Indigenous Cultural Safety, Health Equity, and Anti-Discrimination guide which provides additional information to help physiotherapists implement the standards in their practice and understand the steps they can take to fulfill the performance expectations found in the standard. Tune in to this episode to learn more about the standards, the guide and the work the College has undertaken since 2020.

September 30th, 2021 is the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada. Today is an occasion for us to remember and acknowledge the lost children, the living survivors, as well as the immediate families and communities that have been impacted by residential school systems. Additionally, September 30th also commemorates Orange Shirt Day, declared by the federal government. The colour opens the door to global conversation on all aspects of Residential Schools. It is an opportunity to create meaningful discussion about the effects of Residential Schools and the legacy they have left behind. A discussion all Canadians can tune into and create bridges with each other for reconciliation. A day for survivors to be reaffirmed that they matter, and so do those that have been affected. Every Child Matters, even if they are an adult, from now on. If you would like to read more about these occasions or browse any relevant resources, feel free to view any of the links below.

In this episode, Lynn Fergusson and Sally Fazal, Partners at SIA, share their thoughts on the first annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada.   The day is a federal statutory holiday in Canada, and SIA is also recognizing it as a day for reflection and learning.   To quote our federal government's announcement: “The day honours the lost children and Survivors of residential schools, their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process.”   In this episode, Sally and Lynn talk about how SIA is learning more about reconciliation, and the legacy and trauma of the residential schools system. We talk about how the SIA team is developing our knowledge and practice to honour survivors and those lost and work toward a more equitable society in what is now called Canada.   We talk about how our communications and approaches to strategy development are changing as we learn, how we are supporting learning in general, and share some examples of how our approach and language has changed.   We are committed to continuing this learning journey and encourage our listeners to do the same. And we thank our Indigenous partners and friends for their patience and support. Please let us know how you are recognizing the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, and how you are learning and growing as a partner in reconciliation.     Resources:   Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action  https://ehprnh2mwo3.exactdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdf  A conversation with Senator Murray Sinclair:   https://www.rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca/eng/1470146258433/1559837409039  Carolyn King, Order of Canada:   https://www.thespec.com/life/opinion/2021/02/07/carolyn-king-former-chief-of-mississaugas-of-the-credit-first-nation-inducted-to-order-of-canada.html  Delivering on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action:   https://www.rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca/eng/1524494530110/1557511412801  Anti-Racist decolonizing framework:  https://www.afsc.org/resource/anti-racist-decolonizing-framework-talking-about-and-describing-young-people?mc_cid=00bdbbac7b&mc_eid=2e03aa461a   .

As stewards of the land, it is the duty of all environmental professionals to look after all forest values forever. We have gotten good at managing for plants and animals, water, and recreation. Unfortunately, Indigenous values have been left behind. Indigenous people have been left behind. The only way we can properly account for Indigenous values and needs is to understand where they come from and what they have been through. We must look into the dark depths of Canada's past and accept it for what it is. Perhaps when we all understand we can seek to forge a new path forward together. If we want forest management to succeed, we need Indigenous people to succeed. Let's start by hearing their story. Your Forest Podcast by Matthew KristoffHonouring Truth with Michael GubbelsEpisode highlightMichael Gubbels shares the history of Indigenous peoples in Canada and the ways in which non-indigenous people can be allies in the journey towards truth and reconciliation.ResourcesThe Story of A National Crime by P.

United Nations, academic organizations, corporations, companies... they are realizing this more and more that there is such a benefit to partnering with indigenous peoples, to working with them in their cultures, in areas of biodiversity conservation, balancing development.”31.30 - 31.38: “The simplicity in hearing the wind is medicine; smelling the trees and the plants, it's medicine.”1.02.16 - 1.02.33: “Love, compassion, determination - those 3 things will change the world.”1.48.00 - 1.48.16: “Sometimes, when people criticize, it says more about them than it does about me... It says more about where they are coming from and how they see the world, and I don't need to… take all that on because I believe in myself and I know I'm doing the best I can.”2.00.00 - 2.00.06: “Mother Earth gives to us freely, so we are to give to each other freely and to the earth freely.”Takeaways“From your heart to your head” (13.25)Michael acknowledges indigenous people for sharing this land which is the source of our livelihood and the lives of all organisms. At age 12, when he first found out that he was Métis on his mother's side, he was ashamed because he had grown up in the prairies with myths and misconceptions about indigenous people. At 22, he joined the Aboriginal Student Union in hopes of a scholarship but ended up learning about and loving his culture.“Don't just pray with your mind, pray with your heart” (19.22)Michael shares his experience at a sweat lodge, where he learned the power of praying alongside others, and the resilience and strength prayer can bestow on you. He worked with elders to learn more about praying and even manifested the woman of his dreams through sincere, humble prayer. He is grateful for the beauty and wisdom he has discovered in his culture through the teachings shared by elders.From shame to connectedness (31.30)Michael encourages others like him to look beyond the negative messaging they have grown up with, and learn about indigenous cultures with an open mind and heart. He is mindful that residential schools, RCMP officials and priests taught children to be ashamed of their culture, history and ancestry and tore them away from the elders and sources of knowledge. Other government measures and like banning ceremonies and impoverishment reinforced the shame. Residential schools more dangerous than World War I (43.18)Michael recommends the book The Story of A National Crime by P. H. Bryce, which exposes the countless deaths in residential schools due to dangerously unhealthy conditions. When the children were living in their own homes, they led healthier lives than even settlers' children. The schools were rife with medical experiments, assaults and sexual abuse. There are many more hidden graves of children yet to be uncovered for the truth to be revealed.Intergenerational trauma (56.44) Michael quotes Dr. Gabor Maté's theory on trauma, addiction, stress and childhood development to explain why residential school survivors took to addictions to escape their realities and numb their pain, loneliness and depression and passed on the trauma through their familial generations due to lack of healing opportunities. Elders teach that it will take fewer generations to heal if we create a safe, understanding and compassionate society. All Canadians are my brothers and sisters (1.03.51)Michael believes that people “try to do the best they can with what they have” and that those who are ignorant of indigenous issues have just not received the correct teachings. Reconciliation is about “no shame, no blame, no guilt” so a space to share the truth and grow in a community is needed. By modelling compassion, love and determination, people can be taught to undo their biases, which can lead to the resolution of many other issues in society. When a language dies, a university worth of knowledge is lost (1.17.32)Michael highlights some First Nations are in danger of losing their cultures because of the dwindling numbers of language speakers. Some Nations have mandated that all their members learn one new word a day, which, in a few years, will ensure that most people can speak the language fluently. He hopes that the government and all Canadian citizens support such initiatives which will benefit the children, economy, environment and international reputation. “It's hard but it's simple” (1.20.04)Michael claims that “evolution isn't survival of the fittest, it's the species that can adapt most to change”, and urges listeners to live with love, compassion and determination to adapt. There are many ways to contribute to the cause and be an ally, but the underlying goal should be making indigenous voices heard instead of being a voice for them. He encourages us to be curious, patient and unafraid of making mistakes in this journey as long as we are respectful. Love is humility, giving, listening, forgiving (1.39.43) Michael says that success at any initiative is the tip of the iceberg, and it hides the many failures on which it rests. The path of truth and growth is easier to walk on with love, compassion and determination and it will change your life and the world in a good way. Love is a conscious journey, not a destination, and it can help attract and cultivate the love, hope and willingness to change and improve that we wish to see in the community. “Truth has so much trauma” (1.47.30) Michael suggests being kind to yourself when someone criticizes you and showing empathy for their hurt. He asks us to question if our messaging is imbued with love or fear and to face the fears to let love shine through and energize courage to uncover the truth. When people are afraid to live in truth, it can have dangerous consequences for them and the world. “Indigenous cultures see Canada as a family”, and want everyone to rise up in truth together.

Did you notice that many people weren't up for celebrating Canada Day this year? It came and went with little fanfare and this was largely because many of us weren't feeling particularly proud of our country. More and more unmarked graves of Indigenous children are being discovered at former residential schools across the country and instead of celebrating, we're in mourning. That's what we talk about in today's episode - the history behind Canada Day, what it means for Indigenous folks, and how to use the day for reflection.Contact us for collaborations and to be featured on the podcast:Email - knownonsensepodcast@gmail.com Instagram handle - http://instagram.com/racism.is.nonsenseLinktree - https://linktr.ee/KnowNonsensePodcast Read the Truth and Reconciliation Committee's 94 Calls to Action:http://trc.ca/assets/pdf/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdfRead the full TRC Report titled "The Survivors Speak":http://www.trc.ca/assets/pdf/Survivors_Speak_2015_05_30_web_o.pdf

This week the team has Tim from Calgary Foundation on to talk about racism, discrimintation, and the horrible treatment of indigenous people in Canada. They also touch on the recent burial sites of missing children that is finally sparking a broader outrage within Canada over the deaths of the indigeonous children. In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut'ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.

The recent discovery of over 1,000 unmarked graves at the sites of three former residential schools for First Nations people, has brought these institutions back into the spotlight. However, many people were never taught about the history of these programs to wipe out native cultures. In this month's episode we talk with Dr. Ronald Niezen of McGill University about the ongoing history of the treatment of First Nation peoples. Dr. Niezen is the author of a 2017 book, "Truth and Indignation: Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission on Indian Residential Schools", which explored the Canadian government's truth and reconciliation process that occurred from 2010-2015. There is still more work to be done, despite the 94 calls to action that the commission came out with. Explore this important topic with us.Ronald Niezen, is Professor of Anthropology and Associate Member of the Faculty of Law. He held the Katharine A. Pearson Chair in Civil Society and Public Policy in the faculties of Law and of Arts between 2013 and 2020, and is a former Chair of the Department of Anthropology. He also held the Canada Research Chair in the Anthropology of Law between 2012 and 2019.

Welcome to this episode of The Wild Golf Podcast.  Our guest today is Steve Tooshkenig, an indigenous Canadian from Bkejwanong (also known as Walpole Island First Nation) in Southern Ontario.  Steve is a golf professional and former touring pro who now travels across North America sharing his voice and inspiring others to “walk in a good way.”  Golf was and continues to be Steve's medicine.  It has been said that “Steve is a spiritual person living a human experience” and that spirituality comes through in his words and the story that he shares.  To add context to this interview, I spoke to Steve on June 23, two days after June 21, National Indigenous Peoples Day in Canada.  Just a few weeks before the remains of 215 children were found in unmarked graves at a residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia.  A day after the interview, it was announced that the remains of 751 children were found at another residential school in Saskatchewan.  The now defunct Catholic residential school system was run by the Canadian government and church groups from the 1800's until the mid-1990's and was intended to separate and assimilate indigenous children.   This is just the tip of the iceberg as almost 100 residential schools were operated in Canada during this period.   Earlier this month the federal government acknowledged that this was indigenous genocide (which it clearly is within the definition of genocide in the Genocide Convention), yet notwithstanding the promises made by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in 2016 to implement all 94 Calls to Action recommended by the independent Truth and Reconciliation Commission, only a handful of those Calls to Action have been implemented so far.  This is indeed Canada's George Floyd moment.  For the indigenous community it is a time for healing and it is a time for all Canadians and the rest of the World to stand with indigenous Canadians which as a minimum must start with implementing all 94 Calls to Action.  We hope you enjoy this episode with Steve and “focus on the fairway” with him. Here are recent articles on residential schools in Canada:  https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jun/24/canada-hundreds-more-unmarked-graves-found-at-former-indigenous-school.https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/jun/30/the-guardian-view-on-canadas-residential-schools-an-atrocity-still-felt-todayHere is a link to the 94 Calls to Action recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission:  http://trc.ca/assets/pdf/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdf. Here is a link to an article in ScoreGolf magazine, a Canadian national magazine, that profiles Steve along with Jesse Smith and Steve Styres (both Mohawk of the Six Nations):  https://scoregolf.com/feature/a-nation-of-golfers/ For more information and the inspirational work that he does go to:  https://www.stephentooshkenig.com.  For twitter and Instagram go to:  @stgolfinc and @stgolf.  Steve Tooshkenig on Facebook and LinkedIn.If you like this episode, please tell your friends and leave a review.  Please also follow us on Instagram and Twitter.http://instagram.com/wild_golf_podcasthttps://twitter.com/wildgolfpodcast

This has been a difficult week for Indigenous peoples across Canada. A wound has been reopened with the discovery of remains of 215 children in an unmarked grave at the Kamloops Indian Residential School. Many of us are shocked and horrified, but this news does not come as a surprise to Indigenous communities.It's National Indigenous History month and although the history of residential schools is not how I hoped to start the month, the country is asking our leaders (and the churches who ran the schools) important questions about accountability and reconciliation. Today's episode contributes to this discussion by going over the history of the relationship between Indigenous peoples and settlers and the history of residential schools in Canada.  Read the Truth and Reconciliation Committee's 94 Calls to Action: http://trc.ca/assets/pdf/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdf Read the full TRC Report titled "The Survivors Speak": http://www.trc.ca/assets/pdf/Survivors_Speak_2015_05_30_web_o.pdf Learn about the Missing Children Project: http://www.trc.ca/events-and-projects/missing-children-project.htmlDonate to the Indian Residential Schools Survivors Society: https://www.irsss.ca/donate?utm_source=leadnow&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=blast2021-05-31Contact us for collaborations or to be featured on the podcast:  Email - knownonsensepodcast@gmail.comInstagram handle - http://instagram.com/racism.is.nonsenseLinktree - https://linktr.ee/KnowNonsensePodcast

In this episode, Jody and Leanne discuss Physiotherapy Alberta’s recent Statement on discrimination, oppression and inequity, and our future plans as an organization.   We review how Physiotherapy Alberta initially began this work in response to the Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and was at the point of starting to address those Calls to Action that apply to the work of health regulators when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Then, as 2020 unfolded, we watched the protests that arose in response to George Floyd’s death, listened as people in Canada described the discrimination they encounter every day and realized a broader view was needed, one that considers how people’s experience of discrimination may vary based on their many identity factors.   We talk about Physiotherapy Alberta’s commitment to examining our internal processes and foundational documents from an anti-discrimination, anti-oppression lens. We also discuss our intent to share what we are learning with our registrants and with other health profession regulators, with an aim to affect positive change in the health system.   Resources: Physiotherapy Alberta’s Statement – Addressing Discrimination, Oppression, and Inequity in Physiotherapy https://www.physiotherapyalberta.ca/addressing_discrimination_oppression_and_inequity_in_physiotherapy Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action http://nctr.ca/assets/reports/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdf Links: Subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscribe on Google Play Subscribe on Spotify

This episode takes a look at the history of monuments and examines some of the issues surrounding monuments today. It considers the history of the Robert E Lee monument Richmond Virginia, its signification in relation to the history of equestrian sculptures, and considers its role now. The removal of confederate statues in the American South is part of a worldwide movement to confront the violent legacy of colonialism, the trans-Atlantic slave trade, the attempted genocide of Indigenous people, and other atrocities committed by Europeans and settlers.  In the wake of the #blm movement and the Calls to Action from the Truth and Reconciliation of Canada, this episode asks: what should we do with these monuments now? Dr. Steer examines several options and their implications, such as putting the monuments in a museum or park, contextualizing them, creating new monuments and new works of art, destroying the monuments, or leaving them as is.      Sources + further reading: artnet news. “Tear Down the Confederate Monuments—But What Next? 12 Art Historians and Scholars on the Way Forward.” artnet news.
