Dear Friends and Community Members,
Today, we come together to honour Louis Riel Day-a day to remember and celebrate the legacy of Louis Riel, a visionary leader and a champion of Indigenous rights. Riel's courage, dedication, and commitment to his people continue to inspire us in our pursuit of justice and equality.
As we reflect on his contributions, let us also recognize the strength of our communities and the importance of preserving our culture and traditions. Riel's vision for a united and equitable Canada serves as a reminder of the ongoing journey toward reconciliation and understanding.
On this day, we encourage everyone to participate in activities that celebrate our heritage and promote unity. Together, let us honour the past while working toward a brighter future for all.
Wishing you a meaningful Louis Riel Day!
In solidarity,
The Manitoba Aboriginal Sports & Recreation Council
