How Canadians Can Participate

Moving Forward Together
The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is more than a day of reflection—it is a call to action. Reconciliation requires ongoing learning, listening, and meaningful steps toward equity and justice for Indigenous Peoples. On September 30, and every day, Canadians are encouraged to take part in this journey.
