is a time to celebrate, reflect, and honour the rich contributions, cultures,
and histories of Indigenous Peoples from coast to coast.
The Numbered Treaties were not just historical agreements. They were,
and continue to be, living documents shaping our relationships and
responsibilities, and forming a vital part of the Canadian-First Nations
relationship.
Let's take this month to deepen understanding, show respect, and commit
to upholding the spirit and intent of the Numbered Treaties. Together we
can build a better future for the generations of young people to come.
