#IndigenousVeteransDay honours the thousands of Indigenous soldiers who served in various conflicts, despite facing systemic discrimination both during and after their service. It is a time to recognize their bravery and contributions to Canada’s military.
#LestWeForget

[Waterloo Catholic DSB @WaterlooCDSB]

We honour the remarkable contributions of our Indigenous veterans. Through their courage and sacrifices, they defended the rights and freedoms that we hold dear. Let us also continue to commit to the work of reconciliation, fostering unity and healing in our communities. 🍁 🎖️

Today is International Inuit Day! Celebrate Inuit voices, culture, language, and ways of life!

My dog’s name is Nanook and Inuktitut that means polar bear!

With the holidays approaching try practicing saying Merry Christmas in Inuktitut, “Quviasugitsi!” #InternationalInuitDay
