National Indigenous Peoples Day

June 21, 2024 -
Calendar IndigenousPeoplesDay

For generations, many Indigenous peoples and communities have celebrated their culture and heritage on or near this day due to the significance of the summer solstice as the longest day of the year. It’s become a day for all Canadians to recognize and celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. It’s also an expression of a shared commitment to reconciliation.

Check out this article on a recent ceremony at the Kumugwe, the K’ómoks Bighouse, from Volume 22.
