Education


Examining and defining the reality and lived experiences of Aboriginal people in Canadian history. Education plays an important role in helping children, young people, men and women to understand the past and to contribute to a shared and more peaceful future in societies emerging from conflict. Education is by far the most important determinant of labour market outcomes, and also plays a preeminent role improving social outcomes.

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

Ted proved he had what it took, joining the Detroit Red Wings in 1978. But when his on-ice career ended, he discovered his true passion wasn’t playing; it was coaching.
