Entre autres appels à l'action de la Commission de vérité et de réconciliation du Canada, plusieurs touchent les langues autochtones. Cependant, les termes des discours occidentaux sur les droits et la langue risquent d'occulter les liens fondamentaux entre la terre et la langue, liens sur lesquels des Aînés et des chercheurs ont pourtant insisté. En m'appuyant sur de nombreuses ressources, je montre que la langue est étroitement liée à nos manières d'occuper les terres et que, pour qu'une vraie réconciliation soit amorcée, il est nécessaire de repenser les politiques linguistiques et les politiques d'aménagement linguistique dans cette perspective.
