Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day that honours the lost children, Survivors, families, and communities impacted by the residential school system in Canada. As we reflect on the painful history of residential schools and the intergenerational impact on Indigenous Peoples and communities across the country, we are reminded that truth and reconciliation is a year-round commitment. We all have a role in the collective journey towards truth and reconciliation.
