June gathering
Hello Region 10 members,
June marks National Indigenous History Month (NIHM) in Canada. It is a time to provide opportunities for all Canadians to acknowledge and reflect on the past and present-day injustices and policies, such as the residential school system and the Sixties Scoop. NIHM must not only be about acknowledging and understanding the history of Indigenous peoples in Canada, but also an opportunity to learn about and practice the act of reconciliation.
