Presented by members of the Métis Nation of Ontario’s Justice Team, this session will offer the opportunity to learn about who the Métis are, who they are in Ontario, Métis history and culture, restorative justice practices and important court decisions. Centered on historical and contemporary Métis experiences and within a context of Métis self-determination, the team will demonstrate concrete and innovative actions that ensure that there is equitable and culturally relevant access to justice for all Indigenous peoples within Ontario. Discussions will include programs such as their Community Diversion Program, Gladue Aftercare, Indigenous Liaison Program, and the Indigenous Court Worker Program.
