dc.description.abstract In response to the fragile state of our Indigenous languages in Canada, immediate actions must be agreed upon between Indigenous peoples and the Government of Canada on Indigenous language policies, pedagogies, and language medium. Accordingly, this thesis provides qualitative insight as to why we find ourselves in our current situation regarding Indigenous education, by encompassing stories from Lnu’g Elders, fluent speakers, linguists, historians, educators, authors, and professors. This thesis will infuse both written, and non-written sources, interviews, documentaries, ceremonial gatherings, and my living-experience as a Lnu’sgw – Mi’gmaq woman in the 21st Century. Our oral traditions and world views are the foundational interconnections that are embedded and interpreted within our language. en_CA
