Today and every day, we pause to remember and honour the children who never returned home, the survivors of residential schools, their families, and all generations of Indigenous communities impacted by this tragic history.
September 30 marks both Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation—a vital time for reflection, education, and active commitment to reconciliation. Let us honour the resilience of Indigenous peoples, listen intently to survivors’ stories, and carry forward the responsibility of learning the truth together through cultural safety and humility.
Wear orange to show your support, engage in meaningful conversations, and commit to walking the path toward a more equitable future.
