Innovation Factory will take a moment of silence, with other Canadians at 2:15 p.m. to recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation day. On this day, we honour and remember, those who were lost, survivors, and their families who are affected by the ongoing trauma caused by residential and day schools.

Reconciliation is the responsibility of every Canadian. On this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, explore the rich and diverse cultures, voices, experiences, and stories of the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. Reflect on how you can work towards reconciliation in your own life and create your own personal reconciliation plan. Start your learning journey today.
