description This paper discusses the notion of ‘true relations’ in the context of contemporary Canadian curriculum studies and pedagogy. It focuses on the themes of identity and place, and their connections to multiliteracies in a culturally diverse society, the article points to a need for reimagining educational dialogues with attention to the truths and untruths that have shaped educational discourses in past and present precarious times. Drawing on the concept of métissage, and work by Canadian and transnational scholars in curriculum and pedagogy, this paper provokes and invokes the ethical importance of relational and truth-telling qualities in education.
