Indigenous Peoples Day should be a national holiday
Add your name and support the call for a national holiday on June 21:
Indigenous Peoples Day is an opportunity
to honour the many contributions Indigenous Peoples have made to this
land and reflect on the many challenges they still face today.
Inspired by the Truth and Reconciliation
Commission's call to create a statutory holiday, we want to bring a
sense of hope to Indigenous communities in Canada by honouring
residential schools survivors, their families and their communities.
A statutory holiday would offer a public
opportunity to better understand and ensure Canadians recognize our
common history, and the legacy of the Treaty relationships which remains
a vital component of the reconciliation process.
