As Louis Riel Day lands on a Saturday, join us on Friday for short remarks and the raising of the Métis flag in recognition of Louis Riel Day. Although Louis Riel Day marks the execution of Louis Riel, it is also a day to celebrate Métis culture, recognize the many contributions of the Métis to Canada, and to highlight the struggles that many Métis continue to face.

Following the flag raising, we welcome students, staff, faculty and community to join us at the Aboriginal Resource Centre for coffee, tea and snacks from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.
