New piece by Ellen Gabriel and I on the need to resist Canada’s “elbows up” colonialism.
Canada’s “elbows up” nationalism may look like resistance to Trump, but it risks repeating the colonial violence it claims to oppose. Ellen Gabriel and @seancarleton.bsky.social warn that patriotism built on erasing Indigenous struggles makes real reconciliation impossible.

Canada’s new “elbows up” nationalism frames itself as resistance to Trump and US expansionism—but it risks recycling colonial myths. By glossing over the Mohawk Resistance and ongoing land theft, patr...

As a history teacher who creates PD, I agree that Ts need more time to learn how to navigate complex histories & build their knowledge and pedagogical practice. Waiting until 11 am on the last day of school to announce a pause? Totally disrespectful. #Onted www.thestar.com/news/canada/...
Ontario is pausing its curriculum overhaul. Here’s what that will mean for students
Changes set to take effect this fall included mandatory instruction on Holodomor, Holocaust, Black Canadian history as well as kindergarten changes.
