Orange Shirt Day should not be a called or turned into a “celebration”. It is our Remembrance Day. We honour and observe. This day represents many lost children and widespread intergenerational trauma. Its a time to learn and reflect. #EveryChildMatters https://t.co/O6MQTmA96H

The way Orange Shirt Day is turning into a celebration says a lot. Canadians aren’t having concerts or fairs on Remembrance Day but some how mourning Indigenous children has turned into a circus.

Orange Shirt Day is a time to honour Residential School Survivors, spend time with the people you love, and to listen to youth about the future they want us to build together where every child matters https://t.co/p8o21HUO5P

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It’s also known as Orange Shirt day. It’s to remember Indian Residential School Survivors. In Mi’kma’ki/the Atlantic, there was the Shubenacadie Indian Residential School. 1/5

As if his story itself wasn’t enough, he came bearing gifts, which I wear proudly today on Orange Shirt Day. The Turtle Island necklace was made by RSS Louisa Horse (Kewl Lou) especially for Eugene. The illustration - the logo of Saskatoon Survivors’ Circle - is by Simone McLeod. https://t.co/NPOBoxaSFw
