Abstract
The Indigenous populations of Canada have experienced years of human rights violations according to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The Indigenous population in Canada is known as First Nation. The children of the First Nation populations have experienced violations against First and Second generation of human rights. The violations include child exploitation, such as discrimination in welfare systems, residential schools, and improper living conditions. A comparative analysis was then conducted between the treatment of First Nation people of Canada and the Indigenous population of the United States in attempted solutions to resolve the human rights violations.
