National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30 is a day to recognize the impacts of the Canadian residential school system and to honour the resilience and dignity of survivors, those who didn’t come home, and their families and communities. This day is an opportunity to build on our commitment to Indigenization and reconciliation in our community and beyond through observance, education and action.
