Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to honour the children, Survivors, families and communities impacted by the residential school system.
We also recognize the First Nations, Inuit and Métis Veterans who served Canada with courage and dedication.
May today be a time to remember, reflect and continue moving forward together in the spirit of reconciliation.

Each November, thousands of white crosses transform Calgary’s landscape into a powerful place of remembrance.
Since 2009, The Field of Crosses has honoured the men and women from Southern Alberta and across Canada who gave their lives in service to our country. More than 3,500 crosses stand in tribute during the 11 days leading up to Remembrance Day, each one representing a life, a story and a sacrifice that should never be forgotten.
By Adopting A Cross, you help preserve this meaningful memorial and ensure future generations continue to understand and remember the sacrifices made for the freedoms we have today.
