Canada Day is a time to celebrate (and to read Canada Day statements from politicians)

Espousing the virtues of a united nation of “40 million strong,” Prime Minister Justin Trudeau released a Canada Day statement today.

We can – and we should – take pride in all those things. After all, Canada is the envy of the world: people fleeing violence and persecution dream of a life here, businesses open headquarters in our cities and manufacturing plants in our towns, and world leaders look to us for leadership in times of crisis.

We are from far and wide, but united we are 40 million strong – and there is no challenge we cannot overcome together. So today, let's celebrate each other, and let's celebrate as we continue to build this great country. And let's continue to seize every opportunity we can to make this country even better for our children and our children's children.

Part of that is remembering that today is a difficult anniversary for Indigenous communities, as it celebrates the formal displacement and the start of the genocide for the first people of this land.
