Resources from the Broadbent Institute

This opinion piece in the Globe and Mail from Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond (Aki-Kwe). This year’s Ellen Meiskins Wood Award winner, Turpel-Lafond urges us to honour these children’s lives by implementing the rights of Indigenous peoples in tangible ways.
This tweet thread from Indigenous leader and Squamish nation spokesperson Khelselim, reminding us of the Truth and Reconciliation Report’s calls to action that specifically address the treatment of Indigenous children.
This piece from APTN on Institute fellow Cindy Blackstock’s ongoing fight to end the human rights tragedy against First Nations kids. It is shameful that our government continues to try to use legal technicalities to try and get out of their obligations towards Indigenous children.
The Broadbent Institute stands with the Indigenous, First Nations, Inuit and Metis people of this land. We will continue to support them and fight with them to see their rights acknowledged and the Truth and Reconciliation report’s 94 calls to action realized.
