DESCRIPTION:‘Maps always lie – by what is placed on them and what is le
 ft out – but maps can also help us see the truths.’ - Adele Finney.\nE
 xploring maps helps us understand our histories\; our social\, economic an
 d political stories\; where we came from\; and where we are in relationshi
 p with each other. At the centre of the Mapping Exercise is a large map of
  Canada (called Turtle Island by some First Nations). We’ll learn about 
 the First Peoples and the waves of settlers in recent centuries\, explore 
 why early European explorers called Canada an empty land (“terra nullius
 ”) and consider what that means today. We’ll watch excerpts from the A
 nglican Church of Canada’s “Doctrine of Discovery” and hear Indigeno
 us voices. Please come to share\, learn\, be challenged and be engaged. Th
 e Mapping Exercise was developed by Alongside Hope in answer to the Calls 
 to Action of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Michael Shapc
 ott\, Executive Director of Sorrento Retreat Centre in British Columbia\, 
 is a trained facilitator and will lead the exercise.\nPlease Register via
