#IndigenousVeteransDay #Kanada #Canada #LestWeForget During the war, many Aboriginal servicemen earned medals for bravery in battle, and most expected that t...heir wartime contributions would result in a new atmosphere when they returned to Canada. On 20 June 1920, Saskatchewan Cree clergyman Edward Ahenakew voiced this hope: ‘Now that peace has been declared, the Indians of Canada may look with just pride upon the part played by them in the Great War, both at home and on the field of battle. They have well and nobly upheld the loyal tradition of their gallant ancestors who rendered invaluable service to the British cause in 1775 and 1812 . Not in vain did our young men die in a strange land. the unseen tears of Indian mothers in many isolated Indian reserves have watered the seeds from which may spring those desires and efforts and aspirations which will enable us to reach sooner the stage when we will take our place side by side with the white people, doing our share of productive work and gladly shouldering the responsibilities of citizens in this our country.’ (Volume 1 - Looking Forward Looking Back Report of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples)
