Our newest collaboration brings you a new webinar series!

Canada's History Society is delighted to announce that we have collaborated with the Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba to create and host our upcoming webinar series, Treaties and the Treaty Relationship.

The Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba (TRCM) has produced our country's leading Treaty Education Initiative. This initiative is a public education strategy for kindergarten to grade 12 that includes teacher resource guides and the opportunity for educators and students to hear from members of the TRCM Speakers' Bureau. These speakers share information and promote conversation to foster an understanding of the historical and contemporary issues that relate to treaties. These presentations speak to both the Canadian and First Nation perspective of treaties.

By inviting members of the TRCM Speakers' Bureau and educators to participate in this webinar series, we are able bring the TRCM's Treaty Education Initiative into your homes and your classrooms. Together we can raise awareness of treaties, and of the rights and obligations associated with them.

Register now so you don't miss the Treaties and the Treaty Relationship webinar series. After you register you will receive news about the series, reminders leading up to each webinar, and after each webinar, a link to the video recording.
