FAILURE OF FIRST NATION EDUCATION
This study focuses on the contribution as a potential influence on the brawl for indigenous or
native reclamation, regeneration, the transformation of the education system, knowledge giving
process, lands, culture, resources and lifestyle. It acknowledges the fact that the Indigenous
history of Canada does not start with the influx of colonialism as their future does not be
contingent entirely on the worldview of Western civilisation. Instead, according to the author
Doug Cuthand, the future lies on the convergence of the worldview of Indigenous community,
which has encapsulated through their knowledge and language with integrated colonial
worldviews captured through literality (Wotherspoon). As per what is mentioned in the article,
the very first education system was a failure, from the native residential school to day school to
the integrated schools there was no regard for the culture, language and history along with
involvement of parents of the first nation peoples and all this has happened during the period of
1970s under the Indian education movement (Hansen & Nicole). Although the integration of
colonial education system does hold various benefits in terms of upgrading the education process
along with the transforming the culture, language and lifestyle as the western civilisation is
undoubtedly much more advanced however the system that has been implemented by the
colonial government and operated by the Church authority got violated later on and started to

diminish the native culture instead which totally messed up the process, and that is why the
indigenous people had to take over their the responsibility to save their culture and community.
