SUMMARY:National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
DESCRIPTION:September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. \nThe day honours the lost children and Survivors of residential schools\, their families and communities.  Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process. \nWear orange \nBoth the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day take place on September 30. \nOrange Shirt Day is an Indigenous-led grassroots commemorative day that honours the children who survived residential schools and remembers those who did not. This day relates to the experience of Phyllis Webstad\, a Northern Secwepemc (Shuswap) from the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation\, on her first day of school\, where she arrived dressed in a new orange shirt\, which was taken from her. It is now a symbol of the stripping away of culture\, freedom and self-esteem experienced by Indigenous children over generations. \nOn September 30\, we encourage all Canadians to wear orange to raise awareness of the very tragic legacy of residential schools\, and to honour the thousands of Survivors. \nSource: Government of Canada\, 2021 \nLearn more on BC CRN’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation page.
