“Ten years ago, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission released its Final Report and 94 Calls to Action—laying the groundwork for reconciliation in Canada. This anniversary is a time to face the truth of our history, take stock of where we are, and reaffirm our commitment to the work that lies ahead. We know that reconciliation is a journey, and that there is still much more to do to realize the vision of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. We remain committed to advancing this work in partnership with Survivors, Indigenous communities, and all those striving for healing and respect.
