In this year of celebration of “Canada’s” 150 years we must not forget our hosts who were here before we arrived. There is much more truth that can be uncovered if we study. The CBC has a list of 15 books about Indigenous History and experiences. I have read three and was able to get three more at Coles at Medicine Hat Mall. We found all of them available for order at Coles, Chapters and Indigo.
