NEWS RELEASE
****************************
In continued efforts toward reconciliation, and in solidarity and consultation with local members of the Indigenous community, the city’s 2021 Canada Day activities are being themed around our shared history and will focus on education, reconciliation and reflection. 
The city encourages residents to use Canada Day as an opportunity to learn about the histories and cultures of the Indigenous peoples of this region.
As part of its recognition for National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21, the city prepared virtual programming that celebrated the heritage, diverse cultures and significant contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples, and collected community partner resources for continued learning.
