Institutions hold workshops, share resources on Indigenous Veterans Day, Remembrance Day

Postsecondary institutions across the country are holding commemorative ceremonies to honour Indigenous Veterans Day and Remembrance Day. Several institutions also launched special events and shared resources to educate the community: Brock University held beaded poppy-making workshops; Camosun College, Centennial College, and Mount Allison University shared reading lists and learning resources; and Dalhousie University, MtA and the University of Saskatchewan published the stories of alumni, faculty, staff, and students who have served in the military. Two universities also celebrated the 100th anniversary of dedicated memorials: the University of Guelph’s War Memorial Hall and the University of Toronto’s Soldiers’ Tower.
