Orange Shirt Day: September 27th
UBCM is pleased to once again recognize Orange Shirt Day at this year's Convention. Delegates are encouraged to wear orange on Friday, September 27 for
Orange Shirt Day
- an annual day of recognition of the harm the residential school system did to children's sense of self-esteem and well-being. Wearing an orange shirt is a way to honour the survivors and remember those that did not survive. Orange T-shirts are available for purchase by donation during Convention at the Business Centre provided by Lidstone & Company Law Corporation. All donations collected will be given to an Indigenous charity.

Monday 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM
