Closed- What to do instead of Celebrating Canada Day

We are closed on Thursday July 1st and Friday July 2nd.

Here at the Centre, we would encourage you on this July 1st to spend your day finding out what you can do support Indigenous peoples, instead of celebrating Canada Day.

Things you can do to take action:
-Wear orange on Canada day to stand in solidarity with the #EveryChildMatters movement
-Continue to practice allyship and uplift Indigenous voices
-Donate to Indigenous organizations and Residential school survivor funds
-Join us in learning and unlearning by checking out resources

Below is a link to a great resource article by the Indigenous Foundation that dives into what to do instead of celebrating Canada Day. They have tons of great ways to learn and unlearn on this July 1st (and beyond!).
