towards Canada's 150th birthday (2017) and its subsequent celebration, it is
important to look back and consider the circumstances surrounding that birth.
While carving out its own space, Canada violently displaced and dispossessed
Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island. One of the ways this displacement and
dispossession was (and continues to be) enacted is through the cartographic eye
of the colonizer. Thinking about the performative act of cartography and how it
has helped shape the settler state Canada, this symposium inquires what
performance and indigenous forms of mapping can contribute to embodied or other alternative forms of mapping.</span></span></font></span></p><font size="2"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
