Today is a day to learn about the history of residential schools and the effects they had on people. It’s a day to remember, reflect and understand the stories of survivors.

Today is more than just an opportunity to return to Jasper - it's a time to reflect on all you've endured and a step towards recovery. You've faced fire, carried the weight of uncertainty, and still, you stand. 🗻

Today and onwards, it's okay to feel all the emotions - the heaviness, relief, grief, gratitude - or maybe it's too much to feel. You don't have to be brave every moment. You're not alone in this. Lean on one another. Let the tears fall if they need to. Coming back can be overwhelming, and so can not coming back. It's okay to not be okay right now. 🫶

"Jasper isn't just a place - it's also a community. Jasper stands because you stand, and we stand with you. We are resilient, brave and strong."
Jasper National Park Field Unit Superintendent Alan Fehr

“Everyone has had, and will have, a different experience. As one community, we will walk this new road together, every step of the way. It will be long, it will be difficult: no one will be alone. We will rebuild, side by side, stronger than ever.” - Mayor Richard Ireland

You're not just returning - you're rising. We'll rise together.

With all our hearts,
Municipality of Jasper
Jasper National Park
