This WOD was developed in collaboration with elders. The numbers in the workout connect with the 94 calls to action, 6/3/2021 and 2015. The barbell weight reflects the 215 unmarked graves originally uncovered at the Kamloops residential school. National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30th. The day honours the lost children and survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities. Creating such a federal holiday was one of the 94 calls to action by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 2015. The reasoning behind the recommendation is that public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process. On June 3, 2021, Bill C-5 received Royal LAssent and Sept. 30 was officially designated as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
