Grande Prairie’s Veterans Memorial Park & Interpretive Centre hosted a ceremony for Indigenous Veterans Day on Friday, November 8.
Representatives from multiple levels of government as well as local First Nations and Metis peoples attended to pay their respects to the First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people who served Canada in the military and law enforcement.
Special attention was given to the discrimination Indigenous veterans faced when they returned home.
