Today, September 30th, is Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day. This day is dedicated to acknowledging and honoring Indigenous, First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities impacted by residential schools and encourages global reflection on their ongoing effects.   In observation, destinations Station Mont Tremblant and Blue Mountain Resort hosted community events where guests could connect with local Indigenous representatives and have meaningful community conversations on truth and reconciliation:    - Station Mont Tremblant hosted a special event over the weekend, where community members interacted with various Indigenous communities, sampled traditional products, and experienced the rhythm of the drum. - Blue Mountain Resort hosted a community gathering honoring Survivors, their families, and Indigenous communities. After an Awareness Walk through the village, Indigenous speaker Eagle Blackbird and his grandmother, Jenny Blackbird – a Residential School Survivor – shared stories, truths, and teachings at the mountaintop Elevate (Mbin'ge) art installation.   Alterra Mountain Company joins Alpine Aerotech, Blue Mountain Resort, CMH Heli-Skiing & Summer Adventures, Mike Wiegele Helicopter Skiing, and Station Mont Tremblant in recognizing this important day.    Learn about the origin story of Orange Shirt Day, visit https://lnkd.in/gr_XNRtV
