Today is Red Dress Day.

Today we pause to remember the Indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirit people who are missing or have been taken from their families and communities.

Behind every red dress is a person who was loved. A daughter, a mother, a sister, an auntie, a friend.

Today, we remember them, honour them, and hold their families in our hearts. ❤️

Today, on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors who did, and the families and communities who continue to carry the legacy of Canada’s residential school system.

Today is a day to remember, to listen and to learn.

Truth comes before reconciliation.

Every Child Matters. 🧡

September 30, Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, is coming soon.

For well over a century, Indigenous children were removed from their families and communities and sent to residential schools. Between 1867 and 1996, 140 federally run residential schools operated in Canada, and more than 150,000 First Nations, Inuit and Métis children attended residential schools.

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a day to honour Survivors, their families and communities, and to remember the children who never returned home.

It is also an opportunity to learn about this part of Canada's history, its lasting effects, and why reconciliation matters.

September 30 is also Orange Shirt Day, with its simple and powerful message: Every Child Matters.

If you'd like to learn more about the history and meaning of the day, you can visit the Government of Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation page:

🦉 Why two owls?

When I wrote *Silent as Love*, I could have chosen two owls of the same species. I didn’t.

One is a Great Horned Owl. The other is a Barn Owl. And that choice matters to the story. Like many of the stories in Silent as the Wild, what happens between the animals is about something much more human.

In my latest Story Behind the Story, I talk about why I chose two very different owls, and what their differences allowed me to explore in Silent as Love.

If you’ve read the story, you may see it a little differently afterward.

And if you haven’t… well, perhaps this is where you meet them. 🦉

Celebrate identity, resilience, and connection with this beautifully crafted sterling silver Michif Niiya infinity necklace.

The pendant features a flowing infinity symbol with the words Michif Niiya delicately laser cut into the design. Meaning “I am Métis,” this piece is a quiet yet powerful expression of pride, culture, and belonging.

The infinity shape symbolizes continuity, honouring past generations, present strength, and the enduring future of Métis heritage.
