Orange shirts displayed the feelings of many at RMTC
By Letter to the Editor on July 8, 2021.
Editor:
While attending the horse races at RMTC and celebrating Canada Day, it was with compassion by many due to the result of the recent residential school discoveries.
The presence of orange T-shirts was clear evidence where the thoughts of many attendees were. It is with this thought Bob and I would like to recognize the participation of the Kainai, Piikani and Sisika Nations for their contribution to this day.
From the DJ, to the Elders’ prayer, the drummers, dancers and warrior racers, your presence and entertainment made the day memorable.
It was wonderful to be there and enjoy the entertainment provided by our First Nation neighbours.
Bob and I look forward to attending future events, and we simply say “thanks” to you for being there.
