National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

September 30th is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day honours the survivors of the residential school system, the children who never returned home as well as their families and communities. This day of commemoration is a vital part of the reconciliation process on Turtle Island (Canada) as it deepens our collective awareness of colonialism and ensures ongoing reflection across Turtle Island for years to come.

The CUPE Atlantic Maritime Indigenous Council (CAMIC) encourages all CUPE members to tie an orange ribbon or wear an orange shirt as a sign of respect to these Indigenous children and their families, and to support healing in Indigenous communities. For inquiries, please email: cupe.atl.mar.indigenous.council@gmail.com.
In Solidarity,

CAMIC members

Brandice Blanchard, Vice-Chair for the CUPE Atlantic Maritime Indigenous Council
