Rating
0.0 stars

In the land we now call Canada, the term "Indigenous peoples" or "Aboriginal peoples" commonly refer to three groups: First Nations, Métis, and Inuit. It's important to recognize that Indigenous peoples are diverse, each with their own unique histories, languages, spiritual beliefs, and culture. Indigenous peoples are one of the fastest growing population groups. According to Statistics Canada's 2021 census, approximately 1.8 million individuals identified themselves as an Indigenous person.

This is part of the Maamwi Hub's Discover Section, where you can find information and resources on Indigenous Peoples’ history, cultures, and perspectives, with a focus on the territory currently referred to as Ontario. Explore the entire Maamwi Hub by visiting the Provider Set linked below.

The Mysteries of the Franklin Expedition

Rating
0.0 stars

How could the best-equipped scientific mission from the world’s most technically advanced industrial country – and Franklin’s third trip to the Arctic – flounder? The Inuit, many of whom were in the immediate vicinity of Franklin’s ill-fated voyage at the time, thrived in that same Arctic environment, and had done so for thousand of years. The Franklin Mystery: Life and Death in the Arctic will provide you with a window on Inuit life, allowing you to explore not only the environments in which the members of the Franklin expedition died, but how and why Inuit have been able to live there successfully for so long. The Franklin Mystery: Life and Death in the Arctic invites you to explore the historical evidence about those tragic events, and come to your own conclusions about what happened, and why.
