Show Notes
Join Sylvia Plester-Silk on 10 Minutes to Joy as she reflects on National Truth and Reconciliation Day in Canada. She explores the legacy of residential schools, the lack of Indigenous history in public spaces, and the importance of moving beyond symbolic gestures. With a focus on education, respect, and meaningful action, Sylvia highlights what Canadians still need to learn to truly honour Indigenous peoples and work toward reconciliation.
