Canada’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation falls at the end of September. In honour of this day, we invite you to join us in dance on those themes on the Friday prior to show our respect for the First Nations who first called this land home and the Land that we share, and to work together as peoples to solve our global collective problems. We hope this evening will further this goal.
