September 30 is a time to pause, reflect and learn as we recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

It is an opportunity to listen to Indigenous voices and perspectives, learn more about the history and experiences of Indigenous Peoples in Canada, and reflect on what reconciliation can mean in our community.

We encourage everyone to take a moment on September 30 to learn, reflect and consider how we can continue building relationships rooted in respect and understanding.
