Hundreds of people walked in support for residential school survivors and the children who did not make it home at a community smudge walk at the First Nations University.
Many people from all walks of life attended several events in Regina days before National Day of Truth and Reconciliation to honour residential school survivors and those who did not make it home.
“It is important for us to commemorate, to engage in remembrance for the children that didn’t return home from Indian residential schools, and also to acknowledge the strength and resiliency of Indian residential school survivors,” said FNUniv President Jacqueline Ottman. “This will be something that we will continue to do in years to come, because the discoveries of unmarked graves continue throughout the province also throughout the country.
