| dc.description.abstract | In response to the final report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRCC), the federal government of Canada has committed to all of the 94 Calls to Action contained in that report. Call to Action 93 focuses specifically on newcomers to Canada stating: “We call upon the federal government, in collaboration with the national Aboriginal organizations, to revise the information kit for newcomers to Canada and its citizenship test to reflect a more inclusive history of the diverse Aboriginal peoples of Canada, including information about the Treaties and the history of residential schools” (TRCC, 2015). Using a systematic review methodology, this study examines the existing literature for insight into how to best implement Call to Action 93 for war-affected Ukrainians displaced to Manitoba as a result of the on-going invasion of the nation of Ukraine by the Russian Federation. Ukrainian settlers and Indigenous people in Manitoba share a long history of complex relationships dating back to the first wave of Ukrainian immigration in the late 1800s. Ukrainian and Indigenous peoples share common experiences with colonization and social marginalization. Based on the findings of the systematic review, this study presents a project proposal on how to effectively implement Call to Action 93. The goal is to encourage Ukrainian survivors of colonial violence to empathize with Indigenous people’s colonial experiences in Canada and identify healing pathways from colonial trauma while staying true to the original intention of the call. | |
