Though Canada Day is a time when many will gather and celebrate with family and friends, we encourage everyone to take a moment to learn and reflect on why many Indigenous people choose not to celebrate.
For many Indigenous peoples, Canada Day is not a celebration of the country's history, but a time to remember the challenges their ancestors faced, the impacts of colonization, and to honour the strength, resilience, and survival of Indigenous communities.
Understanding our shared history is an important step toward reconciliation and respect for one another.
