Today is National Truth and Reconciliation Day in Canada.
I hope everyone will use this day as an opportunity to reflect and consider how they can contribute to meaningful and lasting reconciliation. We can all have a hand in this effort. #TruthAndReconciliation
I woke up early this morning. I’ve been thinking about what I’ve learned in recent years about Canada’s colonial history. It’s a horrific one. It’s not some distant thing. The last residential school closed during my lifetime. The impacts are still felt. #TruthAndReconciliation

A few thoughts on a Friday afternoon about that Trudeau-Scheer “meeting” in Dieppe. I imagine it’s fairly uncommon for political party leaders to “bump into” one another like we saw yesterday with Trudeau and Scheer.
You see it at larger events such as Vancouver’s Pride and the occasional (rare) showing of unity on major issues that goes beyond partisanship. But, outside the House, it’s not routine for them to be in the same place at the same time.
