Learning from History: Teaching the Treaties to High School Students

Originally published in TEACH Magazine, 100 Years of the Williams Treaties Special Issue, 2023

By Joseph Filiplic

All people living collectively in Canada are “treaty people,” meaning that we all have rights and responsibilities for this land we call home.

Treaties are a foundational part of our country. Every city, town, road, and building that exists in a treaty area today is only possible because of a treaty that was signed in the past. Today, these treaties reflect an ongoing relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

As treaty people, we must take the responsibility of learning about our past so that we can renew these relationships and better orient ourselves in the present and, ultimately, steer ourselves towards a positive future of meaningful reconciliation.
