From the authors: "Women, Contemporary Aboriginal Issues and Resistance" is a free kit, five print pieces and an 80 minute DVD, designed to help you and your students, your classmates, or your friends explore what it's like to grow up Aboriginal and what other youg Canadians learn about Indigenous Peoples. The kit follows the lives of three fictional children as they grow into adulthood, quickly becoming aware of the way their prejudices, Aboriginal roots, and friendships continue to play an improtant role in shaping their view of each other, and our country. This teaching guide is recommended for ages 14+ and is suited for individual or group study (as large as 30 people).

The 2014 Ontario Budget and the mandate letter to the then Minister of Aboriginal Affairs committed to moving forward with a Treaty Strategy that would, among other things, retivalize treaty relationships. In response, the Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation engaged an independent Indigenous facilitator to lead forum discussions with Indigenous peoples across Ontario, inviting members from Indigenous communities and organizations to share their perspectiveson treaties. The facilitators took handwritten notes and produced a facilitator’s report, from which this report was written. This report summarizes what was expressed at the treaty forums and can be used as a discussion tool; it represents a master summary of community voices and includes additional resources and teaching tools created by Indigenous partners or through partnerships with the Government of Ontario.

Really great resource for all teachers when teaching about Two-Spirit peoples and the sacred roles they've had in communities. Though the term "cross dressing" should generally be avoided, this resource offers a lot of insight about gender roles and identity expression from a historical Indigenous perspective.

A series of interviews from Queer and/or trans and two-spirit Indigenous people between the ages of 18-35 living in Toronto. From the author: "This zine is about research I did on how young trans, queer and two-spirit* Indigenous people use the word two-spirit. I interviewed fellow young queer, trans, and two-spirit Indigenous people here in Toronto about two-spirit as a term – how we use it, how we see our communities using it, and the relationships between two-spirit and other words that are related to our genders, sexualities, and who we are as Indigenous peoples." This resource is also great for introducing high school students to qualititative university-level methods in an accessible way; the author discusses hypothesis-building, choosing methodology, and interview processes.

Description taken from the NFB: "Covering a vast swath of northern Ontario, Treaty No. 9 reflects the often contradictory interpretations of treaties between First Nations and the Crown. To the Canadian government, this treaty represents a surrendering of Indigenous sovereignty, while the descendants of the Cree signatories contend its original purpose to share the land and its resources has been misunderstood and not upheld. Enlightening as it is entertaining, Trick or Treaty? succinctly and powerfully portrays one community’s attempts to enforce their treaty rights and protect their lands, while also revealing the complexities of contemporary treaty agreements. Trick or Treaty? made history as the first film by an Indigenous filmmaker to be part of the Masters section at TIFF when it screened there in 2014."
