Every Child Matters March

September 30 @ 1:00 am 4:00 am

On September 30, join The Native Women’s Shelter of Montreal for the organization’s 4th annual march to commemorate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

We come together in honour of the children found in mass graves, residential school survivors, and their families. We invite community members, organizations, and students to stand with us and listen to the wisdom of our powerful speakers. We encourage everyone to wear orange shirts and bring their drums as symbols of solidarity. 
 
March Route: 
-Begin at the Monument George-Étienne Cartier 
-Walk south on Parc Avenue to Sherbrooke 
-Turn right onto Sherbrooke 
-Continue along Sherbrooke until Peel 
-Turn left onto Peel 
-Continue south on Peel until Boulevard René-Lévesque 
-Gather at the former Macdonald Monument at Place du Canada, between Metcalfe and Peel, just south of René-Lévesque 

As we walk along Milton Street, a place where many homeless people gather, we invite you to bring donations such as food, clothing, socks, or gift cards to share with those in need. 

Let’s walk together for truth, reconciliation, and healing.
