  • June: National Indigenous History Month & National Indigenous Peoples Day

    A colourful banner with National Indigenous History Month branding has images of an eagle, narwhal, and fiddle.


    June is National Indigenous History Month and June 21 is National Indigenous Peoples Day in Canada.

    This is a time to recognize the rich histories, heritage, cultures, and diversity of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. We honour the stories, achievements, and resilience of Indigenous Peoples, who have lived on this land since time immemorial and whose presence continues today.

    This month and day are opportunities to learn about the cultural diversity of Indigenous communities and promotes understanding across all communities.

    Check back soon for information about local events.

    Learn more about National Indigenous History Month, National Indigenous Peoples Day, and about the images in the banner above from the government of Canada.
