The Indigenous workstream
This is not our land.
Whose land this is, said in the nations' own words, not ours: the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation on the Toronto Purchase and Treaty 13 — mncfn.ca — and the ongoing work of Talking Treaties.
Doors
Find services
Looking for an Indigenous-led or Indigenous-serving service in Toronto? Start with the free services and learning-traditions guide. Every entry links the provider's own site. → Guide 17: Indigenous Services and Learning Traditions
Find organizations
The organization directory's Indigenous-led and Indigenous-serving rows, in the same directory every other organization in this project appears in — same status gate, no special treatment. → Organization Directory
Read Indigenous authors
Sixty-eight works — reports and books — selected on stated, mechanical criteria, organized by theme. Where a work's authorship has been publicly contested, that contest travels with the entry. → The Indigenous Shelf
Learn the traditions
For a non-Indigenous reader who wants to learn: public tours, cultural education, and the language classes that are stated open to everyone — never a substitute for the services above, which are addressed to Indigenous readers specifically. Ceremony is entered by invitation, on communities' own terms, never consumed. → Guide 17 — Learning Traditions (Part B)
What Indigenous communities have said about Toronto's issues
Thirty-one issues, each with what Indigenous nations, organizations, and knowledge-holders have publicly published about it — quoted exactly, sourced to the original, never paraphrased into our agenda. Where communities disagree, we carry the disagreement. → The Indigenous Context Library
Our method and our limits
The charter this work runs on, and the roadmap of what is done, shipping, and next. Every quote here is verified against the living source, twice, by different hands. → The Charter · The Roadmap
