In a heartfelt statement issued yesterday, Greg Rickford, the Minister of Indigenous Affairs, paid tribute to the courage and sacrifice of Indigenous Veterans on Indigenous Veterans Day.
Rickford emphasized the significance of the day as an opportunity to remember and express gratitude to the thousands of Indigenous Veterans, as well as those currently serving in the military. These individuals have played a crucial role in safeguarding the nation during times of war and military conflicts.
Highlighting the rich history of Indigenous military service, Rickford acknowledged that First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people have bravely fought alongside allies in both World Wars and various past conflicts. Their commitment extends beyond historical events, as Indigenous members of the military continue to serve in diverse capacities both domestically and internationally.
The Minister recognized the unique challenges faced by Indigenous individuals enlisting and serving in the military, including traveling long distances to enlist, leaving behind familiar surroundings, and navigating cultural and linguistic differences. Despite these obstacles, Indigenous Veterans and those currently serving have demonstrated exceptional valor and bravery.
