Upon working with Denise Bolduc, curator of Spotlight Canada: The UNcommon Wealth at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, we felt it was important to share online resources about Canadian Indigenous history and advocacy.
This is not an exhaustive list and we will continue updating this page as more information is collected.
If you have any suggestions or additions for this list of Indigenous resources, please reach out to our Communications Director Colin Frotten at colin.frotten@capacoa.ca.
