Observing National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.png)
September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada. This day recognizes the injustices of the residential school system, the resilience of survivors and intergenerational survivors, and the memories of those who never returned home. CPA Manitoba reflects on and acknowledges the impacts of Canada's past while learning how we can create change for the future in both our profession and our communities. At CPA Manitoba, our office will be closed on September 29 for staff training in observance of the day and a continuation of our learning journeys.
We have compiled a list of resources to help reflect and learn today, tomorrow, and always.
If there are additional resources you would like to suggest, please contact us.
To assist in your learning journey, CPA Manitoba encourages you to take these free courses which explore important truths about the history of Indigenous peoples in Canada.
