Every Child Matters March

  • Monument to Sir George-Étienne Cartier Ville-Marie, Quebec H2W 1S8 Canada (map)

On September 30th, join us for our 4th annual march to commemorate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We come together in honour of the children found in mass graves, residential school survivors, and their families. We invite community members, organizations, and students to stand with us and listen to the wisdom of our powerful speakers.
