🧡 Every Child Matters 🧡
Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour the children who never came home, the Survivors who carried their stories so the rest of us could know the truth, and the families and communities who are still healing.
Our ancestors were told our languages, our ceremonies, and our ways of knowing would disappear. They didn't. All across our homelands, our people are still here. We are still speaking, still teaching, still raising our children in the strength of who we are. That is not a small thing. That is resistance, and that is hope.
Reconciliation isn't a single day or an orange shirt. It's a promise that has to be kept every day after this one. So today, we invite you to listen to a Survivor's story, learn whose land you live on, and ask what reconciliation looks like in your workplace, your school, and your community.
And tomorrow, keep going.
To Survivors and intergenerational Survivors: we see you, we believe you, and we stand with you.
