You've covered a couple of things that you'd want in the citizenship guide. Can you think of other parts of indigenous history that you think indigenous peoples would want new Canadians to know about because they might not know about it?

I'm in Thunder Bay and we have a large indigenous population, but that's not the case in a lot of parts of Canada. Most immigrants go to Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver.

Is there anything else in the history that you would say we're particularly proud of and want new Canadians to know about?
