Today marks National #IndigenousPeoplesDay, a day to honour and celebrate the diverse and unique heritage, traditions, and cultures of Indigenous peoples in Canada. #NIPD2021 
National Indigenous Peoples Day is celebrated on June 21 every year around summer solstice, a moment which Indigenous peoples have celebrated for thousands of years.
On this day we recognize the significant contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis that shaped our past, and we affirm their important role building a brighter future and better Canada.
There have been many instances this year that remind us we must come together to build a better Canada for current and future generations, a Canada that respects and upholds the rights, languages, cultures, and identities of all Indigenous peoples.
We encourage everyone to take the time today to learn more about the stories and experiences of Indigenous peoples in Canada, and about the cultural diversity of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis by participating in the many activities happening across Canada.
