Walk for Wenjack & Secret Path Screening

The Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund is part of Gord Downie’s legacy and embodies his commitment, and that of his family, to improving lives of First Peoples in Canada. In collaboration with the Wenjack Family, the goal of the Fund is to continue the conversation that began with Chanie Wenjack’s residential school story, and to aid our collective reconciliation journey through a combination of awareness, education, and action. The aim of these events is to move reconciliation forward by bringing Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples together to create awareness, share and learn.
