As we approach the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we invite you to join us on September 24 for a special webinar reflecting on our collective journey of truth and reconciliation in Canada.

We are honoured to welcome bestselling author and journalist Waubgeshig Rice of Wasauksing First Nation, author of Moon of the Crusted Snow and Moon of the Turning Leaves. Through his writing and journalism, Waubgeshig has shared stories of contemporary Anishinaabe life, culture, language, family, and community with audiences across Canada and beyond.

Together, we’ll explore the importance of Indigenous voices and storytelling, reflect on where we are in the journey of reconciliation, and consider what each of us can carry forward beyond September 30.
