Description
Make a difference in the path to Truth and Reconciliation with the official Royal Canadian Mint Truth and Reconciliation Keepsake medallion. The keepsake honours both the Survivors and the children who never returned. The beautiful and richly symbolic imagery, reflective of First Nations, Inuit and Métis teachings and traditional art forms, demonstrate that these cultures remain vibrant in spite of the harms inflicted by the residential school system.
The Design:
The dual-sided design acknowledges the intergenerational impacts of Residential, Day and Boarding schools, and it invites reflection about the impact of those schools, the conditions that created them, and how people living in Canada can turn that reflection into acts of reconciliation. The dual-sided keepsake comes with a magnet attachment: choose the side you wish to display, position it on your clothing, and place the magnet on the other side of the fabric to hold it in place.
