On September 30, we observe Orange Shirt Day to honour survivors of residential schools and reflect on their experiences. Established in 2013, Orange Shirt Day invites people to engage in meaningful conversations about the legacy of residential schools, ensuring the topic remains current and relevant to everyone.
Several years later, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation was established as a statutory holiday to acknowledge the impacts of residential schools more broadly and promote Reconciliation. Although also taking place on September 30, this did not replace Orange Shirt Day.
All Canadians are encouraged to engage in this important process of reflection and understanding. 🧡
