Truth and Reconciliation

These crossed my desk, and just thought there may be interest in the community for the content of these courses.  

Looking for self-paced training to help better your understanding of Indigenous cultures, peoples, and worldviews? Here are four free (or minimal cost) university classes: Classes run between 4 to 12 weeks and require 2 to 4 hours of dedicated time per week to complete.

• University of British Columbia – Reconciliation Through Indigenous Education - https://www.edx.org/course/reconciliation-through-indigenous-education

• University of Alberta – Indigenous Canada

https://www.coursera.org/learn/indigenous-canada

• University of Toronto – Aboriginal Worldviews and Education

https://www.coursera.org/learn/aboriginal-education

• Columbia University – Indigenous People’s Rights

https://www.edx.org/course/indigenous-peoples-rights 

Reconciliation through Indigenous Education Course: Registration is still open for the latest free offering for Reconciliation through Indigenous Education, a 6-week Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) offered by the University of British Columbia. The course opened February 1, and runs until March 15, 2022. The time commitment is about 2-4 hours per week (looks like one can still register).

The other ones have start dates around Feb 14 - may still be able to register and it looks like fees are minimal or free.

Looking for Dog Sitter

We are looking for someone who would be interested in helping to dog sit our lovely Zoey girl. She is a 6-year-old border collie who loves people. She does well with our one year old son and our older nieces and nephews. If you give her pets and throw her ball she will love you forever. We are hoping to find someone who can watch her for February 27 - March 2. Please give myself or my husband a call if you would be able to help us out.
