为什么我们需要保持和解课程

“我死亡的报告是夸张的。”
Mark Twain

和解死了吗?我们的trainers和staff frequently are asked this question, and their answer is “No!”

但是,有些人认为它已经死了,所以我问Google。我的查询显示了30,600,000个结果。快速扫描前三页的文章,宣布和解死亡(我们的除外,和解Isn’t Dead. Here are 94 Reasons Why) or took the approach that it wasn’t dead because it never was alive. Why do we hold this belief when others have thrown up their hands? More progress has occurred in the past few years than ever before. It is not for us or anyone other than the survivors of the residential schools themselves to make that call. For survivors, reconciliation is a journey of healing, dignity and justice. If we give up on reconciliation, where does it leave us as a country?

A Quick Look at the Long History of Reconciliation

The seeds of reconciliation were sown in 1996 with the publication of The Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples’ final report. The five-volume, 4,000-page report covered a vast range of issues and 440 recommendations for extensive changes to the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people and governments in Canada. The federal government responded in 1998 with聚会力量:加拿大的原住民行动计划, which included a Statement of Reconciliation that recognized the abuse suffered at the residential schools. Neither the final report and its 400 recommendations nor the Action Plan generated much action on reconciliation.

直到十二年后,2008年,许多加拿大人才意识到“和解”,居民学校和这些学校的苦难范围。对于某些人来说,它始于2008年6月11日,当时加拿大总理,正确的尊敬的斯蒂芬·哈珀(Stephen Harper)做了一个Statement of Apology代表加拿大政府的印度居民学校的前学生。

“……政府认识到,道歉的缺乏是治愈与和解的障碍。”

真相与和解委员会(TRC)于2008年根据上述道歉和《印度学校和解协议》(The Indian School Sittlement Cansent)承担,他在加拿大度过了六年的旅行,见证了6,500名住宅学校幸存者及其家人的经历。TRC的工作标志着对居民学校的认识,通过将加拿大历史的这一方面从阴影中带出来。TRC主持了七个国家活动,引起了媒体的极大关注,“和解”一词开始渗透到加拿大人的意识。

但是,直到2015年,在TRC发布其摘要报告和94 Calls to Action(CTAs) to guide reconciliation in all sectors. Finally, there were actionable policy recommendations to follow. And the response from governments, organizations, businesses and individuals was overall positive.

Tangible evidence for us as a provider of Indigenous relations training was a significant uptick in governments and businesses requesting our training to address CTAs#57专业发展和Training for Public Servants#92业务与和解。In 2015, when the TRC 94 CTA's were announced,亚博极速快三已经在为政府和企业提供培训亚博足彩投注网Working Effectively with Indigenous Peoples®for well over a decade. Because of this training, many of these governments, organizations and businesses were already well on the way to meeting CTA's #57, and #92 and were on the path of Reconciliation.

我们还看到我们的访客急剧增加Working Effectively with Indigenous Peoples® Blog。但是,给我们的最大的喜悦和信念是,加拿大人接受和解的是土地承认的扩散。我写了原住民协议2005年我的第一个,Working Effectively with Aboriginal Peoples®当时,没有人这样做。现在,你see Land Acknowledgements in email signature blocks, websites, sports and entertainment events, meetings, convocations - everywhere.

Back to the question. We hear this question or conversation most frequently around pipeline projects. CTA#92业务与和解呼吁公司部门,除其他外,“有意义的咨询,建立尊重的关系并获得free, prior, and informed consent在进行经济发展项目之前,土著人民问题在于,围绕有意义的咨询的法律有许多解释,并可能导致尖锐的关系。

And, there’s the frustration that the three levels of government have not consistently adopted the联合国关于土著人民权利的声明- 有些不是,有些人会,有些不会。这是对土著社区和企业都令人沮丧的任意方法。

用CTA#92突出显示的94个呼叫的图像But we want you to understand that pipelines are just one aspect of the corporate sector referred to in CTA #92 - the corporate sector includes everything from grocery chains to railways to drug stores. Pipelines are just a sliver within a sliver.

宣布和解死亡或问:“和解不起作用?”仅查看和解图片的一小部分。这种狭窄的观点损害了工作和进步政府,企业,组织和个人对其他93个CTA的做法。想想教皇方济各于2022年4月进行历史性的道歉,然后随后访问加拿大。如果不是为了实现CTA#58的一致努力,道歉和访问可能不会发生。

#58 Church Apologies and Reconciliation
We call upon the Pope to issue an apology to Survivors, their families, and communities for the Roman Catholic Church’s role in the spiritual, cultural, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis children in Catholic-run residential schools. We call for that apology to be similar to the 2010 apology issued to Irish victims of abuse and to occur within one year of the issuing of this Report and to be delivered by the Pope in Canada.

生活在居民学校恐怖的6,500名幸存者塑造了CTA进行和解。是他们受苦的。他们耐心地等待了数十年的真理,他们的苦难认可,尊严,正义,赔偿,并为涉及的教会所提供的教会的道歉。他们需要希望和信心,因为该国对土著人民来说是更好的道路。仅幸存者有权决定和解是否死了。
