About the discussion:
Over generations, governments and government officials played major roles in adding to the challenges and tragedies experienced by Indigenous peoples in Canada. Now, they are called to play a critical part in advancing and sustained reconciliation. They are called to examine their policies and procedures, interrogate attitudes and values, and work closely with First Nations, Metis and Inuit people in co-developing government policies and programs to reflect Indigenous values and needs, as defined by the Indigenous peoples themselves. This discussion invites two of Canada's most impressive Indigenous leaders to discuss the challenges facing government officials and policy-makers and to provide guidance on how to adjust the civil services to reflect Indigenous priorities and principles.
