Removed from their family home and forced into Canada’s residential school system, Cree musical prodigy Aline and her siblings are plunged into a struggle for survival. Bones and Crows is a film about Aline’s journey from child to matriarch, a moving multi-generational epic of resilience, survival and the pursuit of justice. Registration not required. Seating available on a first come, first serve basis. (In partnership with the Lux Theatre)

Join local Elders in a ceremony reflecting on the impacts of the residential school system and honouring the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation Survivors’ flag which will be displayed at Town Hall year-round in recognition of the community’s ongoing commitment and support of the national Truth and Reconciliation Committee’s Calls to Action.

Join Angus Cockney, artist, athlete, and Inuit residential school Survivor for his presentation in reflection of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Angus tells the story of three young boys running away from a Catholic-run residential school in Inuvik, NT, and their journey to Tuktoyaktuk (also called Tuk). When the road to Tuk was being constructed, several Survivors remembered the trek and wanted to honor the memory by renaming the Inuvik-Trek highway to the Freedom Trail. Drawing on his lived experience, Angus shares a powerful testimony from his life as a residential school Survivor and his own freedom trail. Please note, this presentation addresses challenging topics including themes of child abuse, assault, and residential schooling. Registration not required. Seating available on a first come, first serve basis. (In Partnership with The Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies, The Banff Centre and the Town of Banff)
