  1. National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

    Observed on September 30, this day honours residential school Survivors, their families, and the children who never returned home. It's a time for all Canadians to reflect on the painful history and ongoing legacy of the residential school system. 🇨🇦

  3. Truth is, if you want society to be better for your child, you have to make society better for every child. All children are our children. By @The_Acumen

  4. I hope these Indigenous families find closure, and that all provinces in Canada start to undertake these investigations so that children and babies buried without the knowledge or consent of the parents can be properly located and identified.

  5. Huge #OrangeShirt #memorial to honour all the native kids' lives lost in the cruel #ResidentialSchool system.
    On the site of one of the worst in Canada - #Namgis territory, #AlertBay. It was called St. Michael's Indian Residential School. It was demolished in 2015. #Umista Cultural Center sits on the old site. #Indigenous peoples have reclaimed their land there & are trying to heal from colonial abuses.

    We have racists in #Canada who are currently dishonouring the victims of residential schools by denying survivors' histories & saying mass graves are a lie. This is so wrong. We owe the ones who died & the living survivors support & reparations. Please don't let folks use denialism around you - confront them & stand up for the victims & survivors.

  8. I didn't go out today, so only the household saw my orange shirt, but I got another segment of the Reoprt of the TRC commission done.

    It may take a few months before it's all ready to go.

    It's difficult to read some parts, there's hope in many other parts but the saddest part is how little progress Canada has made in its calls to action and how little Canadians seem to care.

  9. CBC: The Orange Shirt Society has spent more than a decade promoting Orange Shirt Day to create awareness about the impacts of Indian Residential Schools, but it's now fighting back against companies that have appropriated the Orange Shirt with non-complaint designs.

  10. #OrangeShirtDay #NDTR #EveryChildMatters

    "From the early 1800s through the mid-20th century, the U.S. Indian boarding school system sought to erase Native identity by forcibly removing children from their homes, languages, and cultures. Many endured neglect, abuse, and deep loss; thousands never made it back to their families. The generational trauma caused by these institutions continues to impact Native Nations today."

  11. On this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada, I’ve donated one day’s pay or what I could afford to the organizations listed on the One Day’s Pay page. Will you consider doing the same? #NDTR #TruthAndReconciliation #OrangeShirtDay #EveryChildMatters onedayspay.ca

  12. I went for a 4 km walk today. I had more energy than I did yesterday, thankfully. However, I am starting to have hot flashes again. What gives?

    Tomorrow morning, I plan on wearing my orange shirt and joining the #EveryChildMatters walk. I hope my body cooperates. I still want to know why Truth and Reconciliation Day is only a holiday for bankers and politicians. A lot of Indigenous people can't participate because they don't get the day off. Hardly seems reconciliatory, does it?
