Today and tomorrow we remember the children who never came home, and the survivors whose lives will never be the same due to the history of indigenous suppression in Canada. The orange shirt is a symbol of the stripping away of culture, freedom and self-esteem experienced by Indigenous children over generations.
We will be closed tomorrow, Saturday Sept 30.
