Résumé

Inspiré et guidé par le concept de sagesse nêhiyaw (Cree) du wâhkôhtowin, cet article présente la marche comme une pratique de la vie qui peut enseigner la relation de parenté et aider à reconceptualiser les relations entre les autochtones et le Canada sur des termes plus éthiques. Je soutiens qu'aujourd'hui, les relations entre les Autochtones et les Canadiens continuent d'être fortement influencées par les enseignements coloniaux qui mettent l'accent sur le déni des relations. Un défi scolaire et pédagogique important auquel font face les éducatrices/teurs au Canada aujourd'hui est de savoir comment faciliter l'émergence d'une nouveau récit qui peut réparer les fractures coloniales héritées et donner de bonnes indications sur la façon dont les peuples autochtones et les Canadiens peuvent vivre ensemble différemment. D'après mon expérience, l'émergence d'une nouvelle histoire peut être facilitée par la pratique de la vie en marchant.
