The Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action are an essential step toward acknowledging the impact of residential schools and efforts for reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada. For educators, these calls highlight the responsibility to integrate Indigenous perspectives, histories, and ways of knowing into the classroom in meaningful and respectful ways. Embracing these actions means committing to truth-telling, cultivating cultural understanding, and creating inclusive spaces where Indigenous voices are heard and honoured. It is not only about education but about healing, justice, and building a future where all students feel seen, respected, and valued.
