MEDICINE HAT, AB – Tomorrow is September 30th, National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day honours residential school survivors and children that didn’t come home from them.
“It gives us a day to mourn, to reflect, to start and continue our healing. And to come together to do that, because the connection is really important,” says Nicki Easly, the Indigenous student specialist at Medicine Hat College.
The event starts at 2pm, where they will start with prayers and introductions. Then there will be a walk of remembrance, a blanket ceremony for residential school survivors and honouring songs and dance.
