Social Studies 10-2 Notre Dame High School Use the following information to answer questions 27-28 Diagram I Explanation of Diagram I Phase I (Original Relationship): Mutual respect characterized the relationship between Aboriginal peoples and non-Aboriginals. This respect sprang from a high regard for each other’s military capacities and an appreciation of the advantages afforded by trade and cooperation. Aboriginal peoples held the balance of power between English and French forces in North America. Survival of European settlements depended on alliances and/or good relations with Aboriginal peoples. Phase II (Down Cycle): Level of respect for Aboriginal peoples drops as the French empire in North America comes to an end, the fur trade declines, European military strength grows, and great numbers of British settlers flood into Canada. Phase III (Low Point): A period characterized by a complete lack of respect for the distinctive cultures of Aboriginal peoples. All-out attempts are made to assimilate Aboriginal peoples. Segregation of Aboriginals is also encouraged. Phase IV (Up Cycle): Non-Aboriginals recognize the failures of all attempts to assimilate Aboriginal peoples. Non-Aboriginal Canadians begin to show some interest in renewing their relationship with Aboriginal peoples. 27. The Indian residential school system is most closely associated with A. Phase I B.
