We would like to begin by acknowledging that we are in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship”.

We also acknowledge that people of African ancestry have been in Nova Scotia for over 400 years.

Our Sacred Teaching for today is Respect:
In all life, respect is the first and foremost. Respect oneself and respect will be bestowed.

This is Week 1 Today is Thursday, November 16th.

Trans Awareness Week takes place the week of November 13 – 19. During the week people and organizations around the country participate in Transgender Awareness  to help increase understanding of transgender people and the issues members of the community face. Immediately after, on November 20th is Transgender Day of Remembrance. On this day people honor the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence.

Today is also the International Day of Tolerance - A day to advance human welfare, freedom, and progress everywhere, as well as to encourage tolerance, respect, dialogue, and cooperation among different cultures.
