    Victoria Day and the Legacy of Empire

    Victoria Day commemorates Queen Victoria, under whose reign Canada became a Dominion in 1867. For many, her rule symbolizes the expansion of British colonial power—bringing treaties, land seizures, and residential schools. The holiday is increasingly seen by some as a reminder of displacement. 🇨🇦 #VictoriaDay #Colonialism #Canada #TruthBeforeReconciliation
