National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Medicine Hat College, Miywasin Friendship Centre and the Firekeepers Women’s Society, are hosting their fourth annual community event in support of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on Tuesday, Sept. 30.

The outdoor public event will be held outside the Medicine Hat campus' main entrance between 5-7 p.m. and will include a walk* for reconciliation, story sharing led by Indigenous Elders, a blanket ceremony, honour song, and round dance.

Participants are encouraged to dress for the weather, bring a lawn chair, and wear an orange shirt in solidarity with Orange Shirt Day, recognized on the same day.

*The full walk is 1.5km in length, but a shorter, alternate route will be available.
