 \n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, Sept. 30th was the National Day for Truth and Reconci
 liation in Canada\, a day to honour the children who never returned home a
 nd the survivors of residential schools\, as well as their families and co
 mmunities.\n\nTo mark the day\, Family and Children’s Services of Renfre
 w County and The Circle of Turtle Lodge held a bannock and drink drop-in a
 nd ribbon cutting ceremony at the Waka-ehi  Lodge on Isabella Street in P
 embroke. This was followed by the placing of shoes and drumming ceremony a
 t Saint Jean Baptiste Roman Catholic Church at 2:30 p.m. and a community w
 alk to the Pembroke marina where a candlelight vigil was held.\n\nEarlier 
 in the day\, the City of Pembroke partnered with The Circle of Turtle Lodg
 e and Algonquin College to present the “KAIROS Blanket Exercise.” The 
 Blanket Exercise is based on Indigenous methodologies and the goal is to b
 uild understanding about the shared history of Indigenous and non-Indigeno
 us peoples in Canada by walking through pre-contact\, treaty-making\, colo
