Cogeco and YourTV Niagara were honoured to partner with The Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise and welcome Phyllis Webstad, creator of Orange Shirt Day, a grassroots movement that turned global a few years ago to commemorate the residential school experience and honour survivors. Since September 2019, she had been touring schools across the country to share her own experience attending residential school and the importance of Orange Shirt Day, part of a project called Paths to Reconciliation, a partnership between the Orange Shirt Society, Canadian Heritage and Canadian Geographic, to bring her story to Canadians.
Recently, Ms. Webstad attended a luncheon at Club Italia in Niagara Falls, presented by Cogeco and The Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise.
