    National Indigenous History Month

    June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada, a time to learn about and celebrate the diverse cultures, traditions, and lived experiences of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples, who have been on this land since time immemorial and continue to shape the country today. It is also an important opportunity for reflection, to acknowledge the ongoing impacts of colonization, and to consider how each of us can contribute to reconciliation.

    Take time to learn more, and consider the significance of National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21, including ways you can participate in related events and activities.
