Walking together: UM marks National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

September 22, 2025 — 
Across UM campuses, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is marked through remembrance, dialogue and learning. Survivors share healing journeys, students like Shylo Cloud and Antonina Kandiurin connect reconciliation to growth and belonging, and faculty initiatives such as the Summer Institute and Teach-In highlight reconciliation in teaching and research. Guided by the Office of the Vice-President (Indigenous), spaces like the Heart Garden embody UM’s ongoing commitment to walk this journey together.
