Language
Language carries memory, identity, and belonging.
Today, learn one word from a local Indigenous language and honour the people whose voice it comes from.
When language is respected, culture breathes again.

— Children
Every child carries sacred worth.
Today, reflect on the children taken from their families, their languages, and their homes—and on the children still needing justice today.
Reconciliation protects the future by facing the past.

Respect
Respect begins when we stop assuming we already understand.
Today, listen for what Indigenous communities are asking for—not what others say they need.
Honour grows when we make room for truth.

Reconciliation is the work of many small acts of hope.
Today, encourage one conversation that brings understanding instead of division.
A more united future is built one relationship at a time.

If you are Canadian & haven't done this, do it.

If you have read a lot & worked hard to decolonize, do this. Reading is one thing; experiencing a fraction of life under colonization takes it to a whole new in the gut level
