Today we observe National Indigenous Veterans Day. First recognized in 1993, this day honors the significant contributions and sacrifices of Indigenous, Métis, and Inuit military personnel. Acknowledging their bravery and sacrifice is essential to support reconciliation.

It is pride month. Here are some ways to make pride more inclusive: theconversation.com/making-p…

Making pride more inclusive means creating space for 2SLGBTQ+ people with disabilities

Queer disabled people struggle to be seen in queer spaces that often do not accommodate them.
