On the matter of the University of Winnipeg's compulsory policy: As a student who graduated high school prior to the implementation of the provincial curriculum update (Ontario's Indigenous Education Strategy) that requires Ontario elementary and secondary schools to teach students about residential schools, treaties, and more, I had no knowledge of reconciliation before university. 

If my university were to adopt a compulsory policy like the University of Winnipeg, students like myself, who missed out on any formal education about Indigenous culture and history, would benefit greatly by developing empathy and a better understanding of Canada's diversity. Students would also simply be educated on our country's history. That said, I'm curious as to why this article seems to easily deem the Winnipeg university's "too far"?
