Recently, Canada has been dealing with its tragic history and the ongoing legacy of residential schools. On September 30th, we acknowledged this important day by supporting a time to reflect and learn and commemorate the legacy of residential schools and the resilience of survivors. We as Canadians have a responsibility to acknowledge, recognize and educate ourselves and taking actionable steps towards reconciliation.  

In thinking about cultural intelligence and our own Canadian history, let's discuss how our progress is: 

1. Where do you think we as a country currently are in terms of our cultural intelligence?
2. Where do you think YOU personally are in terms of our own Canadian cultural intelligence? Why? 
3. What are some of the key areas of strength for you in this are? 
4. What are some of the key areas of improvement for you in this area? 

When you are answering these questions, be sure to explain WHY your thoughts have lead you in this direction. All answers should be backed up with an explanation and reasoning.
