@ryanjespersen Why don’t Canadians use this day to reach out to indigenous people.
“I’m proud to be Canadian, but I’m ashamed of the way Canada has treated indigenous peoples. I commit to listening to indigenous people and working in partnership to build an inclusive democracy.”

@ryanjespersen I want to learn about the genocide committed against indigenous people and hold those responsible accountable. I want to learn about indigenous worldview and how to welcome that view within my own understanding of what is Canadian culture.
@ryanjespersen I want to be part of an inclusive Canada that celebrates & honours its indigenous peoples. I want to promote indigenous ways of being, knowing, thinking and stop accepting silent genocide.
I want to elevate indigenous voices. I want to ease the suffering of those still healing.

@ryanjespersen I want to be able to celebrate Canada because all it’s people live in peace and harmony together.
I commit to making this a reality by making this day the first Canada Day that truth and reconciliation begins in earnest. Today is the first day of a united Canada.

@ryanjespersen I pledge my allegiance to this nation, to all its people, especially the indigenous peoples, and I humbly accept the responsibility to right the wrongs that have oppressed people of indigenous ancestry.
Maybe instead of Canada Day we call it Reconciliation of Canada Day.

@ryanjespersen That would be something to celebrate.
