Recommended: Racial inequality in education system

Dear (name of the province), I would adore finding a solution to a problem that can help everyone. "We are requesting that Canada make sure that Aboriginal people have equal access to education and opportunities to work with other Aboriginal people." We can always come up with an alternative if my approach doesn't work. I'm taking this job because I believe I can organise and teach the indigenous people's language in a way that will make them happy and, in some ways, make their culture more accepted. I believe it's crucial because everyone deserves the same opportunity to find employment, receive an equal education, and be treated fairly. I want to learn the language of the native people so they will have a better chance of acquiring a job or …show more content…

I am always available to answer questions. This will be in high school and start next year. Respecting indigenous culture can give them a better chance of finding employment and getting an equitable education. How does this aid fair access to jobs and education for Indigenous people? If more individuals learn their original languages, native speakers of other languages will have an easier time finding employment since more people will be able to communicate, comprehend, and hire them more quickly and easily in their native language. In terms of education, I aim to persuade individuals to learn their native tongues because doing so enables them to receive a more equitable education. It is simple for those who speak French, English, or even Spanish because they are fluent in at least one other language. Native English speakers who aren't very proficient at it don't always feel at ease in their native tongue. If we acquire knowledge, each of us will gain by learning their languages in that it will be enjoyable for us to do so, they will feel more at ease speaking it, they will find employment more quickly, we will be able to meet new friends, and they will be able to do the same. There are a

Both these initiatives taken by the Liberal reflect the pressing concern amongst the Indigenous community. Improvements in housing and infrastructure will increase the quality of life and health care accessibility. Moreover, Trudeau's gendered approach to Indigenous issues resonates with the prevalent gender discrimination and violence that occurs within these communities. Consequently, the Liberals positioned themselves as the favourable alternative to the disengaged

This can be done by creating an official committee with both Aboriginals and non-Aboriginal members to ensure that different viewpoints are heard and incorporated with improving this policy. In order to be able to accomplish this, a cultural competency must be emphasized more not only within the committee but also throughout the child and family service system (MCYS,

By doing this, colonial Canadians assumed that aboriginal cultural and spiritual beliefs were invalid in relation to European beliefs (244). The problem with ridding the First Nations Peoples of their languages, as Williston points out is to “deprive them of the sense of place that has defined them for thousands of years” (245). The private schooling system was an attack on First Nations identities, and their identity is rooted in “a respect for nature and its processes” (245).

Like many articles on Aboriginal Peoples issues, Anna Banerji’s CBC article “Improving Indigenous Health Starts With Reconciliation” (Banerji, 2015), is a critique on the treatment of Native Peoples in Canada. Her main thesis focuses on the inequality that exists in Canada, by underscoring the biases and discriminations perpetrated on Indigenous Peoples, in terms of basic human rights. Banerji’s advocacy, although commendable, leaves an empty space, in terms of both a governmental (policy) perspective, and her own assertion’s credibility, due to her writing style and content. These ingredients are essential for an understanding by the target audience (Canadians, in general), as it could allow for a powerful critique on the human rights violations

Aboriginal issues are a long standing problem in Canada because Aboriginals live in third world conditions in a first world country. They struggle to obtain basic human needs such as clean drinking water, proper education, employment, and appropriate living conditions. Both Aboriginals and the Canadian government are debating over the pros and cons of awarding sovereignty to the Aboriginal people. Whether this will actually be proven to help, has created a large controversy. Aboriginals are one piece of culture that makes up Canada's cultural mosaic.

The obligation of involving all affected Aboriginal peoples in the discussions is critical as they are the ones that will be impacted directly from new policies, allow them to understand the policy and have the choice to amend it if needed. This approach will also avoid policies being seen as punitive and discriminatory, but rather directed at empowerment. At an individual level, social workers need to understand and respect the Aboriginal peoples and culture, and be mindful of their past experiences. They can assist in ensuring that Aboriginal peoples receive access to appropriate health care and education, both for adults and children to minimise the feelings of alienation and lack of ownership of the issues. Social workers need to treat each client with respect and dignity despite their difficulties and have respect for cultural differences and boundaries.

There is a great concern to today’s inequity regarding Aboriginal people’s health, education, culture and language. Stereotypes and racism are preventing the Aboriginal people from seeking the benefits they deserve. As Treaty People in Canada, reconciliation must be a top priority to support the healing process of Canada’s history. The treaty relationship has a significant impact on all Saskatchewan and Canadian citizen’s personal beliefs, societal and political positions, and the process of reconciliation.

We can strive for a society where Indigenous voices are heard, where the rights and aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are respected, and where we work together to address the ongoing challenges faced by Indigenous communities.

Canada is known for its amazing healthcare and it is considered one of the best in the world. In Canada, healthcare is ‘universal’ to its citizens under the Heath Care Act. However, not everyone has equal access to healthcare, Aboriginals being some of them. Aboriginals have trouble getting the access they need because of socio-economic status, geography, lack of infrastructure and staff, language or cultural barriers an more. Aboriginals on reserve face many barriers when it comes to access to healthcare, they include cost, language, distance, climate, education and more.

The basis of these problems is a loss of identity and a sense of knowing that their values are oppressed, and their rights are ignored. Likewise, non-indigenous Canadians have become increasingly aware of the unfairness of the richness of indigenous and aboriginal cultures that are taking place.

I particularly agreed with the authors’ argument about blending cultural and academic knowledge (McKinley & Brayboy, 2005, p. 435). I think it is institution’s responsibility to respect their cultural knowledge but also provide appropriate academic knowledge, relative to Indigenous students to be able to actively engage in reciprocal learning with their cultural knowledge, which, then, adds value to their survivance practice. I find that this piece opened up a new way of looking at the challenges which Indigenous students encounter and the ways to move forward with the situation through changing the perception of education not only from Indigenous students, but also from the perspectives of non-Aboriginal members in institutions by providing a way to
