Our goal with this leadership "circle" is to create a non-hierarchical governance structure. We spent a long time in talks figuring out a way to sea everyone equally on this council, and we are excited for the first ever IMSAC council to take their seats at this (virtual) table!

[Indigenous Medical Students' Association of Canada @IMSACIndigenous]

Indigenous medical students! 🗣️📣 Would you be interested in being a part of IMSAC's inaugural leadership circle? The time to apply to be a changemaker and shape this national organization is now until August 16th at 11:59PM CST. All info at https://t.co/3BXbzHDY2b 🪶

When I read statements like “First Nations communities in Alberta” it is misleading. Nations are not communities, nor are they “in the provinces.” Provinces were created after our Nations. The Provinces are in our Nations’ Territories. This Truth is necessary for Reconciliation.

If you are purchasing an orange t-shirt to show your support for Residential School Survivors, please don’t just buy from anyone.

There are so many fake sites claiming to be Indigenous owned and they aren’t.

Do your research or just buy from The Orange Shirt Society directly.
