Reconciling History: A Story of Canada

 Published on October 29, 2024, this 304-page hardcover book presents a unique oral history of the nation, emphasizing the perspectives of both Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

 Drawing inspiration from the structure of a totem pole, the authors organize the narrative into four distinct periods, each symbolized by a crest. This metaphorical framework guides readers through the arrival of Europeans, the onset of colonial laws and policies, and culminates in the present day, represented by the thunderbird, symbolizing resurgence and the ongoing journey toward reconciliation.

 The book seeks to address the historical silencing of Indigenous voices by sharing stories that have often been marginalized. Complemented by stunning photography and art, Reconciling History offers a comprehensive and inclusive account of Canada's history, aiming to foster understanding and healing.

 Authors: Jody Wilson-Raybould and Dr. Roshan Danesh
