The Indigenous War Heroes Project explores the experience of First Nations soldiers and veterans such as Sergeant Francis Pegahmagabow, the most decorated for bravery historical Canadian Aboriginal serviceman.
Indigenous men and women have long contributed to the efforts of the Canadian military. Developed by the Wasauksing War Hero and Native Veteran’s Educational Awareness and Commemoration Project, the lesson plans, stories, and photos included here provide educators and students with a framework and resources for better understanding and celebrating the past and continuing contributions of Native Canadian soldiers.
