As we took a dedicated day to reflect on Truth and Reconciliation on Sept. 30, our ears were full with stories and sounds from Canada's Indigenous voices. While taking time to appreciate the land and its fall foliage, we tuned in to A Day to Listen, produced by the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund. The full playlist is available for replay on the foundation's website, too.
While acknowledgment of the devastating history of Canada's residential schools shouldn't be limited to a single day, nature's change reminds us that there are full seasons for quieting and reflection. Those days are a requirement for the next cycle of growth. Keep your ears open, friends.
