National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. September 30, 2021 marks the first National Day
for Truth and Reconciliation.
The day honours the lost children and Survivors of residential schools,
their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and
painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital
component of the reconciliation process.
The creation of this federal statutory holiday was through legislative
amendments made by Parliament. On June 3, 2021, Bill C-5, An Act to amend
the Bills of Exchange Act, the Interpretation Act and the Canada Labour Code
(National Day for Truth and Reconciliation) received Royal Assent.
COVID
It's very clear that non vaccinated people are by far the largest group
that are getting this virus and dying from it. Part of the problem
is the poor communication by our Politicians.
Despite this there are
many protests which are just spreading this virus further. The Western
Provinces seem to be hardest hit at time of writing this.
