NDP MP Georgina Jolibois’s Bill C-369 passed in the House of Commons last week legally making National Day for Truth and Reconciliation a statutory Holiday in Canada.
Opaskwayak Cree Nation Chief Christian Sinclair spoke to Arctic Radio News and said he was very pleased with the fact that Canada is taking steps to truly implement reconciliation for indigenous peoples.
The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is on September 30th and OCN is planning to have some community events to commemorate the day.
