This NFT marks Canada's first National Day for Truth & Reconciliation on October 1, 2021.

This picture is from the Manitoba Legislative Building on Canada Day 2021, showing the pedestal where a statue of Queen Victoria once sat covered in red hands to symbolize the children lost to Residential Schools. Small tipis can be seen in the Queen's place, with the Golden Boy watching over. While I do not condone vandalism, I also do not support the monarchy. Here is a video of the statue being toppled: https://bit.ly/3uA8Dp2

Many Canadians are asking themselves what they can do to right this historical wrong, while many also remain blind to the ongoing issues that stem from the genocidal Residential Schools regime.

I am creating this Reconciliation collection to mint photography that shows my support for the struggle to end colonialism and uplift Indigenous communities, with 50% of all proceeds being donated to United Way Winnipeg for Indigenous-led community organizations.

These NFTs are primarily time capsules but also function as fundraising for my community and future projects.
