Canadians mark the first annual National Day For Truth And Reconciliation

An orange shirt hangs by small notes with the names of children and the words 'every child matters' tied with orange ribbons on the fence surrounding an primary school as Canadians marked the first annual National Day For Truth And Reconciliation in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on 30 September 2021. Orange Shirt Day is an Indigenous grassroots commemorative day that honours the children who survived residential schools and remembers those who did not. National Day for Truth and Reconciliation honours the lost Aboriginal children and Survivors of residential schools, their families and communities.
