This is National Truth and Reconciliation Day in Canada. 🧡 There are still 31 boil water advisories in Indigenous communities. Two of these are for reserves located only a 30 minute drive from London, Ontario. Clean water is a human right.

 There are 6 in 5 communities in Saskatchewan, 4 in 4 communities in Manitoba, 21 in 20 communities in Ontario, and 1 in Newfoundland.
