Indigenous People of Canada - Welcome to our Homelands
How can you best try to understand the Indigenous perspective without having had the lived experiences? This is a very common question that we hear many times in the work we do. Our answer to that is to learn how to listen very carefully, learn how to be open to embracing some difficult learning lessons on the true history of the Indigenous people of this land. Some of this information and history will be difficult to believe, some of it will be hurtful, but we all need to know and deserve to know the truth.
We will share these truths and histories in a respectful and educational manner through an approach that is safe and meant for you to learn, to understand, to create informative and transformational change within you.
In the following video, you will learn some very broad spectrums of information shared through a recent project in British Columbia

Two Eyed Seeing Approach - "Etuaptmumk"
In a world that needs to better understand traditional knowledge as it relates to the perspectives from the First People of this land and their connection to the environment, we share the true and authentic stories that provide those significant connections. For thousands of years, the Indigenous people have been the original stewards of this vast land and the continuing role they play in the protection of the environment identifies many opportunities to utilize existing yet underutilized knowledge. As guiding and supportive pillars in the work many organizations, industry and governments are doing, we see "Two Eyed Seeing" as a valuable tool to help offer the opportunity to embrace "Integrative Approaches" between Indigenous Knowledge systems & the Western Sciences approach.
The best way to answer to explain this to you is to read about this in this short text link to a descriptive outline provided for you and/or to view the other link to the attached video, both available for your review below;

The power of Indigenous cultural tourism is growing around the world and especially here in Canada where we are seeing statistical data changing by the year. More people and travelers from around the world want to experience the authentic and in person exchanges from Indigenous people. From the beautiful arts, high end crafts, traditional stories shared, the beautiful songs and dances, the tasty traditional foods and much more have all become the key offerings that Indigenous tourism operators and Indigenous business owners are now offering.
The following video was brought together by the national organization for Indigenous tourism back in 2016 and it shows the "Power of Aboriginal Tourism" and set the pathway to many other powerful stories that our people share with so many people that are willing to listen, willing to experience and willing to take back home to share to their families, their friends, their communities - all to help in telling the true stories of our people...
