Happy Canada Day!

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says this year’s Canada Day should be a moment of “reflection,” to consider Canada’s historic wrongs and the steps being taken towards Indigenous reconciliation.
“The moment we have tomorrow on Canada Day is to have real conversations with our loved ones, with our neighbors, with our friends about what each of us can do to stand as allies to Indigenous people, to shift our own mindsets, behaviors, and supports is what this is all about,” he said speaking to reporters in Ottawa on Wednesday.
In a tweet published on Wednesday, Trudeau said he has asked that the flag on the Peace Tower remain at half-mast for Canada Day to “honor the Indigenous children whose lives were taken far too soon.”
The prime minister will take part in the virtual July 1 event, being held online for a second year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A spokesperson for the Heritage department told the evening program will begin by showcasing Indigenous culture and a “solemn moment of reflection.”
