Happy National Aboriginal Day :)
From Wikipedia:
National Aboriginal Day is a day recognizing and celebrating the cultures and contributions of the First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples of Canada.[1] The day was first celebrated in 1996, after it was proclaimed that year by then Governor General of Canada Roméo LeBlanc, to be celebrated on June 21 annually. Most provincial jurisdictions, however, do not recognise it as a statutory holiday
Made this last summer, we had a great time at the Stanley Park
Story, Voices and Actors from Klahowya Village.
