It is clear that people from all over the country want to take concrete and tan­gible action that will make real change. We just need to know how to get started. This book provides that next step. For Wilson-Raybould, what individuals and organizations need to do to advance true reconciliation is self-evident, accessible, and achievable. \u003ci\u003eTrue Reconciliation \u003c\/i\u003eis broken down into three core practices—Learn, Understand, and Act—that can be applied by individuals, communities, organiza­tions, and governments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The practices are based not only on the historical and con­temporary experience of Indigenous peoples in their relentless efforts to effect transformative change and decolonization, but also on the deep understanding and expertise about what has been effective in the past, what we are doing right, and wrong, today, and what our collective future requires. Fundamental to a shared way of thinking is an understand­ing of the Indigenous experience throughout the story of Canada. In a manner that reflects how work is done in the Big House, \u003ci\u003eTrue Reconciliation \u003c\/i\u003efeatures an “oral” history of these lands, told through Indigenous and non-Indigenous voices from our past and present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The ultimate and attainable goal of \u003ci\u003eTrue Reconciliation \u003c\/i\u003eis to break down the silos we’ve created that prevent meaning­ful change, to be empowered to increasingly act as “inbe­tweeners,” and to take full advantage of this moment in our history to positively transform the country into a place we can all be proud of.The Honourable JODY WILSON-RAYBOULD, P.C., O.B.C., K.C., served as the Independent Member of Parliament for Vancouver Granville, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence until her resignation in 2019.
