Uqaqtittiji, I was raised in a system designed to eradicate my identity as an Inuk. While I have had my struggles, as many Inuit and indigenous peoples have, we continue to show our strength and practise our traditions. We still speak our indigenous languages, use our practices and celebrate our successes.
[Member spoke in Inuktitut and provided the following text:]
lnnatuqait, nunaliit ammalu nagligijakka qujalivakka.
[Member provided the following translation:]
I thank my elders, communities and loved ones.
[English]
Could the minister share how Canadians can join in recognizing National Indigenous History Month and how we all can work to advance reconciliation?
