In honour of Truth and Reconciliation Day, here is a picture of the Kihciy Maskikiy/Aakaakmotaani garden. It is intended to embody the spirit of reconciliation. It was created under the guidance of Indigenous Elders. The garden is centred around a linden tree that was planted as a sapling in 2021. This tree’s growth over time represents continuity, renewal, and the long journey toward reconciliation. It is located on the Legislature grounds.

·I came across this group called PADA.... the People’s Alliance for Disabled Albertans. They are hosting a rally on Oct 30...It’s a space where Albertans are coming together to share updates, organize, and support one another around disability and accessibility issues in Alberta. it sounds like they might be working on pushing back/raising awareness around ADAP
They’ve set some simple ground rules: keep things respectful, protect confidentiality, and make sure posts are accessible so everyone can participate. There are also different crews you can join if you want to be more active... things like advocacy, communications etc.
If you’re interested in showing your support (which they direly need and would appreciate!!!), here’s the link to learn more and sign up:https://docs.google.com/.../1FAIpQLSeFd77M39vwp4.../viewform Feel free to pass this along to others who might want to be part of it.
