National Indigenous Peoples Day & Month
Every June brings the opportunity to honour Canada’s rich history with National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21. First established as a national holiday in 1996, the day encourages Canadians to honour and celebrate the legacy and culture of Indigenous groups.
“Honouring Indigenous Peoples Day respectfully is educating yourself about Indigenous history and culture. We all have a part in reconciling Canada’s past.” says Jeanine Jankowski, owner of ToDoOntario, “Staying educated can minimize misinformation surrounding Indigenous culture and keep misconceptions from being passed down to future generations.”
If you’re a non-Indigenous person who would like to participate in the Indigenous Peoples Day celebration, it’s important to maintain a level of respect.
Respectfully observing the holiday largely means keeping the focus on Indigenous culture and history. There are numerous ways to celebrate, which can include anything from eating traditional foods to attending a pow wow, visiting an art gallery and more.
