 So my name is John B. Zoa. I'm the senior advisor to the Clinton government, which is an Aboriginal government in the Northwest Territories. One of the things that we're doing is we need to know a lot more about ourselves because the modern way of doing business is really a corporate model. But that corporate model is for the exchange of finances and exchange of thought without having to give up and erode any rights that you've always had. So the traditional knowledge of governance is still there, which is land-based, and to teach about our own systems we need to start right from the beginning. And that means working with schools, working with the community to do on-the-land programs to get young people to step out into the landscape for the first time and get used to it. And to do harvesting and method of harvesting and processing and the stories that go with it. And so you can start off very early, especially if the schools are doing it all the better. And then you have your community activity, which would happen in the summer where you have on-the-land programs again. And at the same time you have all these games and activities, celebrations in the communities that need to be enhanced all the time. And then the larger ones are annual canoe trips, annual hunting trips where you encourage people to go back on the land and learn as much as they can from the landscape. And then there's a bigger picture now that if you have a claim, we need to start teaching our community members and our workforce to talk about the history of our own history and how we got into a settlement of our land claims and what we end up with, jurisdiction, and how do we work with other governments without compromising further what we had before. So those are done through clinical agreement courses as well as staff training and their participation in collecting information like digital archives. They manage all the websites and all the Facebook pages and newsletters that are developed. We have genealogy. We have our membership records. So it's constant and all these are new. They're not recognized anywhere else except eternal. And there's lots of other first nations across Canada that do similar things, but now it's time to share how we do things so that we don't have to spend too much time developing ourselves when there's models out there that might work. And they might not be uniform all the same, but there's some elements that are common. And the common things are land-based activity and land-based training and land-based knowledge transfer and building characters so that when we're moving forward, we're doing it with some form of protection from further erosion. Well, in a day, a lot of the things that we do is exactly what we're doing here. Sometimes it's a one-on-one and sometimes it's a group activity and sometimes it means networking with other organizations to see not only the territories but across Canada and even international to find out what's the latest trend, what's the best way of maybe streamlining or how to make it more effective. That there are other people working in this area that we need to know about so that we're not spending too much time creating something that might already exist out there already. Well, the successful of the programs is that if somebody starts speaking more than English and is able to read in their own language and even speak some words in their language, and then you see that they have bush skills, they know more about their genealogy and their family tree and even their traditional names, that's how you measure it. It's that you see some evidence of what was there before that has kind of been under erosion for such a long time. Indigenous education is just get to know your own history. If you have that interest in getting to know yourself and where you came from, that's the beginning. And once you get on that trail, then the rest will follow. A lot of these original information and laws of the land was always expressed in the language itself and can never really be fully translated into English because there's no terms for it. And so we need to know about our own heritage, the way we do things and how decisions are made. The best way to retain that information is to learn or make an effort to learn that language. The most important part is the storytelling because that was one of the ways of knowledge translation. It's all based on activity and real life, but the telling of the stories and that it's just people communicating. Communicating a lot more in the old way is probably the most important part. The history of Indigenous people in Canada has to make it into mainstream curriculum. That's another important door for other people to know about the history that is over 10,000 years old and even older. And all we're being taught is what happened in the last 150 years. So Canada is losing a lot by not accepting Indigenous studies. Well, one of them is recognition or changes to regulations or laws to allow for the history of First Peoples to be in the curriculum from preschool all the way to your doctor.
