This listening activity will allow students to spot the vocabulary of tourism they have already encountered and memorized during the previous part of the lesson and in their homework, but this time in an authentic document. In terms of intercultural competence, students will learn or expand their knowledge of tourism in Canada, and particularly in the province of Manitoba where thousands of people (including indigenous communities) speak French or a mixed language containing elements of French. Students will also have time to discuss and reflect on the role of tourism in the reconciliation process in Manitoba, in Canada in general, and in other countries/areas they may know about.

In the author’s own words, Dreaming Ecology ‘explores a holistic understanding of the interconnections of people, country, kinship, creation and the living world within a context of mobility. Implicitly it asks how people lived so sustainably for so long’. It offers a telling critique of the loss of Indigenous life, human and non-human, in the wake of white settler colonialism and this becoming ‘cattle country’. It offers a fresh perspective on nomadics grounded in ‘footwalk epistemology’ and ‘an ethics of return sustained across different species, events, practices and scales’.
‘This is the final and most substantial of Debbie’s love letters to the Aboriginal people of the Victoria River Downs. I say this because there is such a sense of reverence, wonder and respect throughout the book. The introduction of concepts of double-death, footwalk epistemology, wild country … are not only organising ideas but characterisations arising from what Debbie hears, sees and feels of herself and Aboriginal others … I think of it in terms of love, if love is care, reciprocal respect, deep connectivity and a strong desire to never make less of the people she chose to commit herself to.’ —Richard Davis
‘This book was a pleasure to read, filled with careful description of people, places, and various plants and animals, and insightful analysis of the patterns and commitments that hold them together in the world.’ —Thom van Dooren
