Sprott School of Business at Carleton University

Recognized every year on September 30, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (also known as Orange Shirt Day) is an important day of remembrance, reflection, learning and action to mark the devastating history and intergenerational impacts of residential and day schools, and to honour their survivors, including Phyllis Webstad, whose story sparked a national movement.

Situated on the unceded and traditional territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin nation, the Sprott School of Business encourages you to join us in listening to Indigenous voices, learning more about the 94 calls to action from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada and reflecting on how we can contribute to them - on Orange Shirt Day and beyond.

Carleton University is committed to conciliation, as outlined in Kinàmàgawin, a revitalized long-term Indigenous strategy with 41 calls to action to make our university a more welcoming space for current and future Indigenous students and faculty members.
