“Behold the fluffy titan. A creature of pure aerodynamic defiance, fueled entirely by a relentless desire to scream at pollen.”
Honoured to stand with my AFN colleagues today for #OrangeShirtDay and #NDTR. I feel so fortunate to be part of a team dedicated to truth, remembrance, and real action. Every child matters, today and every day. #EveryChildMatters
Standing together for truth and reconciliation.
AFN staff in orange shirts to honour Survivors of residential schools, the children who never returned home, and their families and communities.
The orange shirt is a symbol of remembrance and solidarity, that #EveryChildMatters every day. By raising awareness, we commit to truth-telling, understanding the lasting impacts of the residential school system, and ensuring that such harm is never repeated.
Let’s continue to listen, learn, and take meaningful action, today and every day.
#OrangeShirtDay #NDTR
On National Day for Truth & Reconciliation, we honour residential school survivors & the children who never came home.
Proud to have worked on North Boys, sharing Charlie & Jimmy’s story.

What does reconciliation mean to you? 🧡
Our AFN staff share their personal reflections. For each of us, reconciliation is a journey of action, accountability, and respect for First Nations peoples, cultures, and self-determination.
As the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day approach, we invite you to pause and reflect: What does reconciliation mean to you? What steps will you take to create meaningful change?

Tangles is the ultimate animated emotional trap: it lures you in with goofy family quirks, then hits you right in the feels when you don't expect it. Kinda like Up!
“Tangles is a visually stunning, deeply moving animated film that balances lighthearted humour with the emotional reality of caring for aging parents.” - @JithPaul

Think Interstellar meets La La Land, but as a tear-jerking K-drama.
“Lost in Starlight is a gentle and relatable animated romance film about love, long distance, and chasing big dreams.” - @JithPaul

“I have a message for American friends. Yes, Canada is a generous, open country and Canadians are tolerant and kind. But never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness."
— Former PM Jean Chrétien, speaking at 9/11 commemoration ceremony in Gander, N.L.
Thank you Kevin T. Porter. This is important (and entertaining) work.

TIL: Inuit = "the people" in Inuktitut. It's one Inuk, many Inuit, and saying "Inuit people," like saying "chai tea," is redundant redundant.
