Indian and Metis Friendship Centre to host virtual event on special day.
Today is a day to recognize and celebrate the culture and history of Indigenous peoples across Canada.
Due to financial and COVID reasons, the Indian and Metis Friendship Centre did not have a celebratory event on National Indigenous Peoples Day last year, but will have a virtual event this afternoon.
It can be viewed on the Indian and Metis Friendship Centre Facebook page and will begin at 2 p.m.
Janet Carrier, Executive Director of the centre, said it’s crucial for the public to recognize and learn as well.
