Spill the Tea

The General Education program is organized around these four thematic clusters which constitute groups or streams of courses. Join Here!

Iniskim Centre: The 8th Fire Presentation

The 8th Fire is the last in a series of prophecies that describe the relationship between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island (North America). Previous fires describe key moments in the history of the Anishinaabe (Ojibway), from their original homes on the Eastern shores of Turtle Island to the Great Lakes region where most currently reside.

Join us in co-creating a ‘brave space’ to explore the notion that we are all Treaty People. Join here.
