The knowledge circle is not a test; it is a resource meant to be used to help you understand your level of awareness about the Traditional Treaty 7 territory and Métis Region 3. Awareness is only a beginning step to fostering and mobilizing work of reconciliation. The actions we take after we welcome and embrace deep levels of awareness is where the real impact and change can flourish.
