    Interactive Timeline

    Understanding the Past to Inform the Future

    Our interactive timeline offers a comprehensive view of the complex history of First Nations governance in Canada. Divided into key sections—Federal Government, First Nations Health and Wellness Decisions, Provincial Government, and Bi-Party/Tri-Party Agreements—this timeline traces significant events that have shaped the relationship between First Nations and various levels of government.

    From the epidemics brought by colonizers that decimated Indigenous populations to pivotal legislations like the Gradual Civilization Act, and uprisings such as the Red River Rebellion, this timeline provides critical insights into the profound challenges and injustices Indigenous people have endured. These entries are not just historical facts; they are a testament to the resilience of First Nations communities and the enduring impact of these events on the present day.

    Why This Timeline Matters

    This timeline is more than a historical record; it is a crucial educational tool. It serves to highlight the systemic racism rooted in colonization and the ongoing efforts of Indigenous peoples to assert their rights, reclaim their health and wellness, and establish equitable governance. By understanding this history, we can better appreciate the current landscape of First Nations governance and the ongoing struggles for justice and recognition.

    We share this timeline with the intent of fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of the journey Indigenous peoples have traveled. It is our hope that this resource will inspire meaningful conversations, inform policy, and contribute to a more informed and just future for all.
