On September 30th, Canada marks its National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a countrywide day of learning and reflection.

PGNAETA’s office will be closed so that our staff can honour the lives lost, recognizing the impact residential schools has left on our survivors, our families and our communities.  We shall collectively strengthen ourselves.

On Monday September 19, 2022, PGNAETA will extend our condolences to the House of Windsor for the recent passing of their matriarch, Queen Elizabeth of England.  It is our custom to do so when we hear of the passing of matriarchs.

However, we will observe Monday September 19, 2022 in honor of Indigenous Matriarchs.  Those glorious women who have gone on before us and those who are still with us.  We will acknowledge the resilience of our Matriarchs and the fortitude they demonstrated as they stood their position on the hill and forged pathways for our future.  We will lift our hands up in remembrance and gratitude.
