      Today is Canada Day, a day that celebrates a colonial settler state that to this day still treats Indigenous people like shit. All of our cities are built on their lands and the treaties they were made to sign to cede land did not protect them or help them. 1/

      All they did was force people to live in areas that they then needed passports to leave. Indigenous children were taken to residential schools. Their practices were made illegal. The last residential school, where Indigenous children were subject to abuse and illness 2/

      And cultural genocide, and the Sixties Scoop where Indigenous children were forcibly taken from their parents and put into foster homes and for adoption to white middle class families.

      And the widespread MMIW (missing and murdered Indigenous women).

      Genocide against Indigenous people on Canada is ONGOING. This is evidenced by the lack of movement with the federal gov’t on MMIW, building pipelines through Indigenous land, breaking their own Treaty laws for capitalism.

      My home city was settled on Treaty 7 lands which include the Stoney-Nakoda (Bearspaw, Chiniki, and Wesley First Nations) Kainai, Siksika, Piikani, and Tsuut’ina Nations.

          Where I grew up specifically in my city has a lot of overlap between them, and they were nomadic. And the area has severa names: in Blackfoot it is Mohkínstsis akápiyoyis “elbow many houses” but is popularly Mohkínstsis.

          In Stoney-Nakoda it is Wincheesh-pah or Wenchi Ispase which both also mean elbow, and in Tsuut’ina it is Guts’ists’i which also means “elbow”.

          Thus one of the main rivers in the city is the Elbow, and the bigger one is just the Bow, which make sharp bends.

          I never learned any of this in school. We learned more about the Iroquois and their dealings with settlers, barely anything about the Prairies and the Nations here. A small paragraph, with little or no reference to the people who are here.

          We were taught like Indigneous people were gone, taught like they were relics of the past. I knew they weren’t, but we learned nothing about them.

          So: white Canadians, today instead of patting yourselves on the back about how great you think Canada is, remember that settler colonialism is nothing to celebrate.

          It should also go without saying that land acknowledgments are not enough. We must actively work against racism towards First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people in Canada.

          The government, federal, provincial, and municipal need to be held accountable.

          For example: the government of Alberta passed a law criminalizing protests that “obstruct” roads and public spaces but it can be interpreted very broadly. This was made in response to protests against the pipeline in BC being built on Wet’suet’en land.

          White Canadians are guilty of just being complacent and turning away from any issues. We have some of the biggest superiority complexes I have ever seen.

          Also: do not demand Indigenous people teach you, or explain racism. Make the effort to learn and do better, and know that no Indigenous person owes you their time or expertise or knowledge.
