Looking forward and celebrating our distinctive circumstances means taking the time to recollect and commemorate the occasions of the previous, and to acknowledge and truly recognize all the people who have been involved within the improvement of this nation.

Changing the date to a presumably much less problematic one doesn’t take away the ache – it simply moves it on to the subsequent day. This country’s relationship with First Nations People is steeped in ache, and once we march and protest and rally, we’re demanding accountability, acknowledgement and motion.
