September 30th is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, dedicated to remembering the tragic legacy of the residential school system in Canada and its impact on Indigenous communities across the nation.

It is also a time to especially reflect on the 95 Calls to Action. This aligns with the 1st Hussars' motto, 'Hodie Non Cras', meaning 'Today not Tomorrow', as these Calls to Action invite us to take action now, and devise how to best realize these Calls to Action in our daily lives.

As an institution dedicated to preserving history and educating the public on the 1st Hussars regiment, the 1H Museum can implement these Calls to Action by ensuring that we highlight the stories and sacrifices of Indigenous persons who served in the regiment.
