๐Canada observes its fourth annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, honoring Indigenous children who died in residential schools, as well as survivors, their families, and communities. Also known as Orange Shirt Day, this federal holiday reflects on the over 150,000 First Nations, Mรฉtis, and Inuit children forced into residential schools from the 1870s to 1997. The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation reports more than 4,100 children died while attending these schools. Events nationwide mark the day, including a 90-minute ceremony in Ottawa, with the Peace Tower and Senate building lit in orange.โ . ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐- ๐๐ญ ๐ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐๐ง๐ข๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ! ๐๐จ๐ฆ ๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ฆ ๐๐จ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐จ๐ซ +๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฆ.๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ฆ@๐๐ข๐๐.๐๐จ๐ฆ @jom_mattam . . #TruthAndReconciliation #OrangeShirtDay #IndigenousRights #NeverForget #CanadaIndigenous #ResidentialSchoolSurvivors #IndigenousHistory #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
