National Indigenous Peoples Day

National Indigenous Peoples Day

The summer solstice, the longest day of the year, has special resonance in Canada as National Indigenous Peoples Day. This June 21, 2023, Canadian communities of all kinds will make special effort to honor and learn about the Indigenous cultures local to them.

National Indigenous Peoples Day is an opportunity to associate Indigenous cultures with joy and celebration. Across Canada, in a spirit of mirth, groups will gather to educate, delight, and inspire people with the teachings, food and music from various Indigenous traditions. You might choose to view films with Indigenous influence, support an Indigenous-owned business, or seek opportunities to learn about Indigenous history.

At McMillan, we are committed to acknowledging and celebrating Indigenous peoples, their voices, histories, and perspectives. As a firm, we remain dedicated to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace where all people can expect respect for their cultural traditions.
