On September 30, Canada will mark its first official National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. In support of this important day of reflection, Queen’s will offer commemorative events, learning opportunities, and educational resources across campus to emphasize the university’s own commitment to Indigenization and reconciliation.
Central to the day’s events will be a sacred fire gathering on Agnes Benidickson Field. This intimate, on-campus event will reflect on the legacy of Indigenous residential schools in Canada and seek to re-affirm the university’s commitment to advancing reconciliation. Scheduled to run from 1:45–3:00 pm, the small gathering will include public remarks by Queen’s Elders-in-Residence and other senior university leaders. Due to COVID-19 safety rules, in-person attendance will be limited; however it will be livestreamed online to ensure everyone can take part.
