The National Day forTruth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day
Wednesday, September 6, 2023 at 4 p.m. the City of Oshawa will be raising the Survivors’ Flag at City Hall located at 50 Centre St. South Oshawa.
We will hear from Mayor Dan Carter as he proclaims this day as Orange Shirt Day as well as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We will also be joined by special guest, Anishinaabe Elder, Dorothy Taylor to do a traditional opening for us and we have invited D.N.A (Designated Native Awareness) Stage to attend with the Big Drum to pay tribute and support healing to Indigenous communities that still face many negative impacts caused through colonization and the Indian Residential School Era.
You are encouraged to wear orange to honour the day.
