网曝吃瓜

On September 30th, 网曝吃瓜 will be partnering with (a body that oversees education on behalf of the Mi鈥檏maq of Nova Scotia) and the Town of Wolfville to provide our community with different opportunities to observe, listen, learn, support, and act in recognition of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a time for Canadians to honour the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools. It coincides with Orange Shirt Day, which is an Indigenous-led campaign to raise awareness of the multilayered and ongoing impacts of colonialism, including but not limited to residential schools, and to promote the concept of 鈥淓very Child Matters鈥�.

Several Indigenous community members will be generously sharing their perspectives, talents, and culture throughout the day:

• The morning starts at 8:00am in Clock Park as 网曝吃瓜 students raise the tipi under the guidance of Elder Dr. Joe Michael. This is immediately followed by an opening ceremony led by Elder Dr. Lorraine Whitman.
• Several keynote talks and speaker series will then take place at Festival Theatre where different lived experiences and topics will be shared and explored.
• We鈥檒l also be treated to a day-long Indigenous arts and crafts showcase and sale at Festival Theatre.
• At 5:00pm, the day will culminate with a closing ceremony in Clock Park and Mi鈥檏maw 鈥渟oup and sides鈥� at the Wolfville Farmers鈥� Market.

Please learn more about these September 30th opportunities on the event listing page.

Our responsibilities toward Truth and Reconciliation extend beyond this day. 网曝吃瓜 is committed to providing ongoing opportunities for everyone to explore issues important to First Nations, M茅tis, and Inuit people and celebrate their many accomplishments. You鈥檙e encouraged to engage with the information, resources, and events listed in 网曝吃瓜's Truth and Reconciliation page. Additional content and opportunities will be added throughout the year.
