Media release: On Canada Day, let’s read from the Truth and Reconciliation Report

Free  · July 1, 1:00 pm, at the south end of Victoria Park, by the fountain

Unmarked graves of more than 1000 Indigenous children have been detected across Canada and more are expected. Weather permitting, we’re going to mark Canada Day by getting together to read selections from the Truth and Reconciliation Report “What We Have Learned”. Bring yourself; bring a chair or a blanket. Appropriately masked and distanced, let’s learn together.
