National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day

Dear Members,

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day.

The day honours the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools, as well as 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.

Orange Shirt Day is an Indigenous-led grassroots commemorative day intended to raise awareness of the individual, family and community inter-generational impacts of residential schools, and to promote the concept of “Every Child Matters”.  The orange shirt is a symbol of the stripping away of culture, freedom and self-esteem experienced by Indigenous children over generations.

Today, we encourage all our CUPE brothers and sisters to wear orange to honour the thousands of Survivors of residential schools.

Peace be with you.

In Solidarity,

L.5441 Executive Board Officers
