Today is Canada Day.

As we celebrate this country's rich history and diverse culture, we must also acknowledge the complex and painful history experienced by Indigenous communities. Today, let's honor and respect their contributions, resilience, and ongoing struggles.

Here are some ways you can celebrate Canada Day:
➡️Educate yourself on the history and current issues faced by Indigenous communities.
➡️Support Indigenous businesses, artists, artisans, and entrepreneurs.
➡️Attend Indigenous-led events.
➡️Use your voice to support policies and initiatives that aim to reconcile and improve relationships with Indigenous folks.
➡️Take time to reflect on the land we celebrate today and recognize the traditional territories and original stewards of these lands.
