"Every Child Matters" is more than just a slogan; it is a powerful reminder of a painful history and an urgent call to action for truth, healing, and respect. In Canada and other countries with Indigenous populations, "Every Child Matters" is part of the more significant movement for reconciliation, aiming to honour the lives lost in residential schools, acknowledge the trauma inflicted on Indigenous families, and support the well-being of current and future generations. The significance of this movement resonates deeply within Indigenous communities as they seek to heal from the past and protect their children's future! A Brief History of Residential Schools Between the late 19th century and 1996, more than 150,000 Indigenous children in Canada were forcibly removed from their families and placed in residential schools. The goal of these schools, primarily run by the Canadian government and various churches, was to assimilate Indigenous children into Western culture. This often involved banning Indigenous languages, practices, and beliefs while subjecting children to harsh discipline, neglect, and, in many cases, physical and emotional abuse. The impact was profound. Not only were these children stripped of their culture and family ties, but they were also robbed of their childhoods, with many enduring severe trauma. Thousands of children never returned home, and their families were left with unhealed wounds that continue to affect Indigenous communities to this day. The discovery of unmarked graves at former residential school sites has brought the harsh reality of this history back into the spotlight, underscoring the need for acknowledgment, education, and healing. What "Every Child Matters" Means Today "Every Child Matters" was first popularized through Orange Shirt Day, an annual event that began in 2013. Phyllis Webstad, a residential school survivor, shared her story of having her new orange shirt taken away on her first day at a residential school, symbolizing the loss of identity and dignity experienced by so many Indigenous children. Today, the orange shirt symbolizes resilience, and "Every Child Matters" has evolved into a rallying cry for justice, remembrance, and action.

Yesterday was hectic at the hospital, and managing my kids at home was tough, especially with one being ill. Despite the chaos, I felt overjoyed when I saw I’d already made over $800 on my dropshipping store.

I’m telling you! IF you haven’t tried Sandhill Crane yet, you’re missing out on one of the best wild game experiences! When I first tasted it, I couldn’t believe how rich and tender it was. It’s seriously the steak of the skies. 🥩 Here are 3 secrets to cooking it perfectly: 1. Season it Simply: A little salt, pepper, and garlic is all you need to bring out the natural flavour. 🌿 2. Cook it Medium-Rare: Just like a fine steak, Sandhill Crane is best when you don’t overcook it. Keep it juicy! 🔥 3. Let it Rest: After grilling, let the meat rest for a few minutes to lock in all the flavors and juices. 👌 Want to learn more hunting tips, wild game secrets, and connect with like-minded adventurers?
