Remembering the Children: National Day for Truth and Reconciliation 2024

About Remembering the Children: National Day for Truth and Reconciliation 2024

In honour of the fourth annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (NDTR), APTN, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, CBC/Radio-Canada and the Algonquin Nation have united to produce a 90-minute multilingual commemorative gathering, entitled Remembering the Children: National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

This special program seeks to honour Survivors, pay tribute to the children who never made it home from residential schools, and deliver a safe and nurturing environment for reconciliation and healing. This year’s gathering will encompass powerful reflections from esteemed Elders and Survivors as well as moving performances by First Nations, Inuit and Métis artists.

The gathering will be broadcast live on all APTN channels and partnering Canadian broadcasters to reach as many viewers as possible. Tune in and join us on our collective journey towards reconciliation.
