Today on National Indigenous Peoples Day, we celebrate the cultures and languages of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. Take time to learn whose land you’re on and listen to Indigenous voices - not just today, but every day.

May 5 is Red Dress Day, a time to honour missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQIA+ people. Inspired by Jaime Black’s REDress Project, it urges us to reflect and act. Though under 5% of Canada’s population, they account for 24% of female homicide victims.
