The Walk for Reconciliation is designed to transform and renew the very essence of relationships among Aboriginal peoples and all Canadians. It sounds so simple, but just the act of gathering and walking and sharing our stories can join us all in a shared commitment to creating a new way forward in our relationships with each other. Our future depends on being able to simply get along, respecting each other for the unique gifts we bring.
On May 31, we will walk together in Ottawa to express our determination in rebuilding the relationships among Aboriginal peoples and all Canadians. Join Us.
Stage program begins at 11AM and the Walk will start at Noon on Sunday May 31, 2015.
The Walk will start from École secondaire de l’Île, 255 rue Saint-Rédempteur Street in Gatineau (next to the Robert Guertin Arena, where there will be parking). The Walk will end at Marion Dewar Plaza (Ottawa CIty Hall), 110 Laurier Ave. West.
At the end of the walk, around 1:30pm, we will hear from dignitaries and public figures, followed by performances by Amanda Rhéaume, Elisapie Isaac and Digging Roots. Later in the evening there is a film screening and panel discussions. For more details visit the TRC website at http://www.trc.ca.
