To members of our Lakehead University Community, Each year, during Veteran's Week, Canadians honour, remember, and give thanks for the brave men and women who s...erved, and continue to serve, our country during times of war, conflict, and peace. We do this on November 8 for Indigenous Veterans Day, and on November 11 for Remembrance Day. Since 1900, over 2.3 million Canadians have served in the Canadian Armed Forces, including over 12,000 Indigenous people from across Canada, and over 118,000 have made the ultimate sacrifice to make possible the freedom and livelihood we enjoy today. This year marks the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War - a conflict in which over 1.1 million Canadians served, and approximately 45,000 were killed and another 55,000 wounded. This includes thousands from both Northwestern Ontario and Simcoe County. Each year on the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month, Canadians join countries around the world as we commit to sharing a moment to honour, and reflect on the courage and devotion of the brave men and women who served Canada. We wear the symbol of Remembrance, the Poppy, as a reminder and recognition of their supreme sacrifice. I invite you all to observe two minutes of silence at 11 am on November 11. We will also be lowering the flags at both of our campuses to half-mast on Indigenous Veterans Day (Sunday, Nov. 8) and Remembrance Day (Wednesday, Nov. 11). While this year public ceremonies in both Thunder Bay and Orillia will not be happening due to the pandemic, I encourage you to find your own way to reflect and remember, or to watch one of the virtual services. In Thunder Bay, a pre-recorded video will be posted on the 38 Canadian Brigade Group/ 38e Groupe-brigade du Canada page on the morning of November 11, and a Facebook Live service will be broadcast on the Port Arthur Legion Facebook page. In Orillia, the Royal Canadian Legion has partnered with Rogers Cable to pre-record a Remembrance Day ceremony at Veterans' Park, outside Legion headquarters in Orillia, which will be re-broadcast on Remembrance Day. The Royal Canadian Legion - National Headquarters will also be offering a Facebook Live presentation of the National Remembrance Day Ceremony. To learn more about Indigenous Veterans Day and the First Nations, Métis and Inuit people who have a long and proud tradition of military service in Canada, please visit the Indigenous Peoples page on the Veterans Affairs Canada website: https://rebrand.ly/aofk9 Lest we forget, Dr. Moira McPherson President and Vice-Chancellor Lakehead University

Orange Shirt Day Wednesday, September 30, 2020 - 10 am Join via Zoom https://lakeheadu.zoom.us/j/92714937345 Guest Speaker: Bob Baxter... Residential School Survivor Marten Falls First Nation On September 30th wear an orange shirt in the spirit of reconciliation and to honour Residential School survivors and all those impacted by Residential Schools. Orange Shirt Day is a day set aside to honour residential school survivors and all those impacted by Residential Schools. In the spirit of reconciliation, everyone is asked to wear an orange shirt on this day. The idea for this day came from Phyllis (Jack) Webstad’s story of having her new orange shirt taken away from her on her first day of Residential School. Today it’s an opportunity for communities to come together to re-affirm their commitment to reconciliation.
