TikTok has transformed how we consume entertainment, gather information, build digital communities, and connect. Indigenous TikTok has emerged from Indigenous Peoples' desire for amplified and authentic visibility in digital spaces. Indigenous TikTokers use this social media application to educate

users, revive cultural traditions, and express humour. Despite the thriving presence of Indigenous TikTok as a digital space for storytelling, learning, and socializing, fewer studies examine how audience engagement reflects interactions with and perceptions of Indigenous TikTok content. Rather than

studying the work or experiences of Indigenous Tiktokers themselves, this research focuses on exploring how engagement metrics — likes, comments, saves, and shares — reflect the representation of Indigenous Peoples on TikTok. This qualitative study will employ an in-depth analysis of publicly available

This Capstone explores the intersection and interplay between Indigenous Peoples and digital connectivity, as observed by citizens of Saddle Lake Cree Nation. Through a combination of autoethnography, Indigenous research methodology (IRM), and a braided framework that integrates critical theory and

a postmodernist orientation with a nêhiyâw epistemology, this study interrogates and highlights the concurrent challenges, opportunities, ambiguities and complexities which digital connectivity uniquely present for Indigenous communities. Social and cultural impacts and implications of digital

connectivity vis-à-vis Indigenous Peoples, and vice versa are, are investigated. The research unpacks the concepts of digital equity, digital inclusion, and digital sovereignty via a critique of the neoliberal language and ideology of human rights and recognition-based frameworks undergirding them. Findings

Many resource projects are located in regions inhabited by Indigenous people, whose livelihoods, culture, and spirituality are deeply affected by these projects. Researchers and consultants have developed numerous qualitative and quantitative Social Impact Assessment (SIA) methods to predict or

verify cumulative social outcomes of those projects as they relate to the interests and concerns of Indigenous people. Yet there remains a lack of consensus on the best practices for SIA in this context. Given how wide-ranging these methods are, a review of the literature to identify, synthesize, and

summarize SIA methods in this context is urgently needed. The variety of approaches identified in the literature reflects the worldviews of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people who design and implement these methods, as well as the growing urgency to reconcile resource development with Indigenous people and
