- October 2020: The project aims to teach the public about the Indigenous history of the land they occupy. Elizabeth Dowdeswell was recognized for her support of this initiative by the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.[2]
- November 2020: The project uses stencils of historical moccasin designs to create artwork that identifies Indigenous presence on the land. A new online curriculum was launched in November 2020 following a two-year pilot program in the Greater Toronto Area. The initiative provides stencil kits featuring designs from the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe, Huron-Wendat, and Cree. The initiative has grown at a grassroots level since 2011.[1]
