Today is Orange Shirt Day / National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. From The United Church of Canada Moderator's message for the day: “The Heiltsuk joint leadership of hereditary chiefs and elected chief and councilors have called not for reconciliation, but for a concept in our language called “Haitcistut”, or “to turn around and make things right”. It is not about reconciling two parties who have harmed each other, but non-Indigenous accountability for harms done to Indigenous people.”

Mindful moment: "I love this beautiful, mysterious, complicated planet we get to call home. I don’t mean any simple, sappy kind of love. I don’t mean anything cute or tame. I mean living, breathing, heart-beating love. Wild love. This love is not a noun, she is an action verb. She can shoot stars into the sky. She can spark a movement. She can sustain a revolution."
— Mary Annaïse Heglar
