A Dish with One Spoon

https://thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/a-dish-with-one-spoon

A dish with one spoon was a concept that enabled the Indigenous peoples of the Great Lakes region and northeastern North America to negotiate peace agreements and attempt to live sustainably. However, this concept led to many misunderstandings on the part of the Indigenous peoples when they were signing treaties with the European powers and settler communities in the past. While the Europeans and settlers believed these treaties gave them permanent control over the land, Indigenous peoples believed that they would be sharing the land (see Property Law and Religion and Spirituality of Indigenous Peoples in Canada). Until recently, a dish with one spoon was little known outside of Indigenous communities. Starting in the 2010s, more Canadians have become aware of it. Perhaps this knowledge will help to foster a spirit of reconciliation since the acquiring of knowledge concerning Indigenous history, culture and philosophy is the first step in this process.
