Truth and Reconciliation Commission National Events



The seventh and final national Truth and Reconciliation Commission event was held in Edmonton, AB in March 2014.

The moderator offered a gesture of reconciliation at the Edmonton event. Learn more about how the final TRC event provided an opportunity to help survivors and their families move forward toward freedom from pain and suffering.

The national events provide a chance to celebrate diversity and honour those touched by residential schools. They engage the public and provide education about the history of the residential schools system, the experience of former students and their families, and the ongoing legacies.
