Blanket Exercise

In 1996, Indigenous Elders worked with Canada’s Aboriginal Rights Coalition to write the original script for the blanket exercise. The exercise is an interactive way to learn more about Canadian history, particularly the First Nations, Metis and Inuit perspectives that have not been regularly taught or discussed. 

 

Student Outcomes
