National Day of Truth and Reconciliation
“By shining the light on a dark part of our past, we create space for a brighter, shared future. Understanding what happened is the first step toward healing—and what we do together moving forward is what truly matters.” ~ With deep respect, Chief Robert Joseph, Indian Residential School Survivors Society, British Columbia
Each September, Canadians are called to reflect on the truths of our shared history—especially the deep and lasting impact of the Indian residential school system on First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities. This is a time for learning, listening, and renewing our collective commitment to reconciliation. Explore these powerful books that uplift Indigenous voices, share stories of strength and survival, and invite all readers to walk the path of truth with empathy and courage.
