At age 6, Phyllis (Jack) Webstad had her first day at St Joseph Mission Residential School. There, she vividly remembers her brand new orange shirt - given to her by her grandmother - being stripped from her. Since then, the colour orange is a symbol for Phyllis, reminding her of the message of worthlessness she received.

On September 30th, around the time that many Indigenous children were being forcibly taken to Residential schools from 1870 to 1996, we remember the cutltural genocide and intergenerational trauma these children and families experienced. We remember the mental, physical, and spiritual impacts. We mourn the loss of family, heritage, belonging, and in some cases, life.

Today, we are reminded of the resilience of the Indigenous Peoples, who continue to fight against the colonialist structures still intact and harmful.

Today is an opportunity to read, watch, listen, and attend events to learn. Head to www.orangeshirtday.org to learn more

Today is International Overdose Awareness Day.

Today, we remember the 6000 lives that have been lost in our province since the beginning of this crisis, and we hold hope and advocate for those who continue to face this harm everyday.

Today, we stand for our brothers and sisters, our friends and strangers, and we fight the stigma.

Today, we thank healthcare workers, first responders, social workers and care providers for being on the front lines of this crisis. For saving lives, for fighting burnout, for tirelessly returning to what can sometimes feel like an uphill battle.

Today, we look to our leaders to make decisions that will stop the pain and loss, that will help ease the struggle of people who use drugs and their loved ones, and that will allow for safety and recovery during this difficult and tragic time.

Today, we share messages of support, harm reduction, safe resources, and mental health services to those who really need them.

Today, we reach out to those who have been affected by this crisis, and we send our love and well wishes to them. 💜💜💜
