Much of Canada will observe a second holiday today.
Sept. 30 marks the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation to honour the lost children and Survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities.
Join us as we take some time to remember the survivors and all of those who have been affected because Every Child Matters.
Throughout the day we encourage everyone to wear orange t-shirts, learn more about the origin of Orange Shirt Day and explore the rich and diverse cultures, voices, experiences, and stories of the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples.
Please take the time to read or watch Phyllis Webstad’s residential school story that has inspired the movement.
