National Aboriginal Day is celebrating its 20th anniversary.
Laichwilatach Family Life Society youth outreach support spokesperson Shawn Decaire says this year marks the 20th year of closing the final residential school in Canada and celebrates first nations resiliency and what they’ve gone through in the last century or more.
Decaire says with the Truth and Reconciliation report coming out, he hopes for true changes.
There will be celebrations going on around the city including traditional dancing at the Big House, welcoming speeches, and spirit square activities and free food.
