I am grateful to everyone in this room for participating in this discussion. Thank you to the Committee members, civil society, and members of my delegation.

We begin tonight with the horrific discovery at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School in British Columbia. They would shave our heads and beat the hell out of you. These are crime scenes. The residential schools was a genocide of our people. 215 children were found in unmarked graves. The federal government is ready to dispense $10,000,000. $8,000,000. $27,000,000 to find unidentified burial sites. We will follow the evidence. We will follow the science. We are here for truth telling. Neotribal elites are pretending that it's been found that there's 215 children. There's a difference between murders and children dying in the building. There's no list of names of missing children at any of these schools.

We are here to fight for our reparations, specifically HR 40. Reparations is an issue that affects everyone who looks like me, but it's not a priority for those in power. Our ancestors fought and died for over 400 years, yet we are the only ones not claiming our reparations. Virginia, the birthplace of slavery and the Confederacy, should be where we start, not California.

We celebrate the amazing diversity of our school, which includes various identities, orientations, and biological sexes. The handprints you see were inspired by a student gift, representing their introductions and the beautiful diversity of our community. We acknowledge the indigenous realities that have existed here for generations. Let’s continue to learn and teach with pride. See you tomorrow.

On Thanksgiving, we remember the pilgrims who came to America seeking freedom and the blessings of God. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln established a day of thanksgiving, and today we honor those who came before us and those who protect our nation. We are grateful for the men and women in uniform who cannot be with their families, as they defend our country. We also appreciate the Americans who help those in need and the first responders who risk their lives to save others. Despite hardships, we have seen the strength of the American spirit as neighbors and strangers come together. We are one people, one American family, bound by love and loyalty. We give thanks for our loved ones and ask for God's blessings on our land. Happy Thanksgiving. God bless you and God bless America.

And I want all of you just to know exactly where we are as far as our neighbors go. Minneapolis will continue to be a safe haven for undocumented immigrants, for our trans community. Regardless of who you are or where you come from, Minneapolis is a place where you should be proud to call home.

Thank you for another day of life in LA. We honor our ancestors and fight for land back. We remember those who have died on these streets due to capitalism. Thank you to those in medicine working with love and transformation. And gratitude to Mother Earth, despite our harm, she remains.

This country was built on slavery, and the descendants of slaves continue to build it. We demand reparations for the systemic prejudice, racism, and white supremacy we face. Slaves were not just field hands, but also carpenters, masons, blacksmiths, musicians, and inventors. From Jamestown to New Orleans to Washington, we have contributed to the growth of this nation. We want our 40 acres and a mule, symbolizing our freedom. Emancipation did not come without a cost, as we faced Jim Crow segregation, redlining, and mass incarceration. Our account is still outstanding, and we will keep fighting for what is rightfully ours.

Today, I am at Réseau, a community organization for gay and bisexual men in Montreal's Laurier Sainte-Marie district. We have an important announcement. Please keep your message brief out of respect for those present. I agree with you, we have done more than any other government on this issue. I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

This speaker discusses the difficult conversations surrounding truth and reconciliation in the country. They highlight the historical injustices, such as the genocide of Indigenous people, enslavement of Africans, exploitation of Chinese labor, and British genocide in India. The speaker emphasizes that whiteness has been responsible for the suffering of brown and black communities. They argue that Donald Trump has not created racism, but rather exposed its existence.

It is a distinct privilege to join family, friends, Grand Nation, and graduates this morning to honor and congratulate the class of 2024.

Black and indigenous people of color, as well as those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer, all belong in this world. This includes Asian American Pacific Islanders, Latinos, Hispanics, Romani, and Creole communities. Everyone has a place and significance in our society.

Greetings in the traditional languages of the Treaty 7 people. Today, we gather to honor those who fought for our freedoms, reflecting on the selflessness and sacrifice of military service. Many serve out of family tradition or a calling to humanity, risking their lives for our safety. We must remember and appreciate their sacrifices. Throughout the year, opportunities exist to learn about Canadian military history and the stories of those who served. Engaging with this history fosters understanding and compassion. It’s heartening to see Calgarians participating in ceremonies and learning about our heroes. Today, we pause our routines to acknowledge our fortunate lives in a peaceful country. I cherish the connections I've made with veterans and service members, which inspire me to raise awareness of military service's significance. My heartfelt gratitude goes to the families of the fallen, veterans, and active service members for their sacrifices. Thank you.

I want to assure everyone that I've always prioritized Canadians in my work. I'm committed to having your back. That's why I want to emphasize that we are here for you. Even as this government's term nears its end, we will continue to support Canadians both now and in the years to come.

The land of our forefathers and foremothers must return to our people. This return should occur without compensation and must happen now.

Today is transgender day of remembrance, a day where we mourn the loss of 26 transgender Americans who were killed this year. Sadly, we observe a recurring pattern where the majority of these victims are black women and women of color. It is important to acknowledge that no one should experience violence, live in fear, or face discrimination solely because of their gender identity.

We've seen a devastating rise in Islamophobia. We must stamp out the hate, fear, and prejudice that drives Islamophobia and division in our society. The surge in Islamophobia is simply appalling. The targeting of Australians based on their religious beliefs is not only an attack on them, but it's an attack on our core values. Our Canada is a diverse country. All of us must come together around the values of Eid. I'd like to thank Muslim organizations and mosques who work tirelessly to raise awareness and shine a light on the scale of Islamophobia. Ibrahim or Abraham, Ishmael or Isaac, the lessons and values of Eid are the same. These are Muslim values. These are Canadian values.

The speaker acknowledges Indigenous Peoples' Day and the need to speak truth about the nation's history. They state that since 1934, the U.S. has recognized the voyage of European explorers every October. However, this is not the whole story, as these explorers ushered in devastation for tribal nations through violence, land theft, and disease. The speaker emphasizes the importance of acknowledging this shameful past, shedding light on it, and addressing its impact on native communities today.

We are here to fight for our reparations, specifically HR 40. Reparations is not an issue to those in power, but it affects everyone who looks like me. Our ancestors fought and died for over 400 years, yet we are the only ones not claiming our reparations. Virginia, the birthplace of slavery and the Confederacy, should be where we start, not California.

On this solemn anniversary of the September 11th attacks, we remember the 2,977 lives lost and the pain endured by their families. We honor the heroic firefighters, police officers, and first responders who acted with bravery and selflessness. They traveled from all over the country to the sites of the attacks, risking their lives in the line of duty. We will never forget the images of smoke billowing over lower Manhattan, the Pentagon, and Pennsylvania. Our hearts go out to the families who continue to suffer. May the memory of those who perished be blessed, and may America be blessed.

We gather in memory of William Coombs, murdered 10 years ago for being a witness to a crime involving Elizabeth Windsor. His death exposed genocide in Canada. Despite attempts to silence him, his courage lives on. We reclaim Cathedral Park as William's Memorial Park, symbolizing our commitment to continue his fight for justice. Let us honor his memory by standing up against oppression and reclaiming the world for all people.

A debate in British Columbia centers on Indigenous land title and reconciliation. Speaker 0 notes that homeowners in Richmond woke up to find their properties given to an Indigenous band that had fished there over 150 years ago, and asks the premier, “With 204 bands in BC, how many more title cases could be coming down the pike?” He asks for “Just the number, please.” He points out there are 204 bands in the province and implies ongoing title claims. In response, Speaker 1 (Minister of Indigenous Relations) emphasizes focusing on agreements and reconciliation. She states that nations across the province are keen to reconcile, noting that this province did not enter into treaties with most nations as other provinces did, and expresses a wish that it had, suggesting that would have provided more certainty today. She asserts that the path to a better future is not through division or denying the province’s history, and acknowledges that the province has made missteps, caused violence and harm, and trauma to First Nations people through laws passed in the legislature. She says recognizing that history can lead to lighter, more hopeful relationships, enabling people to see each other in a way previously denied, as reflected in the building’s past divisions. She argues that acknowledging history can help create a future where the province and Indigenous nations stand alongside each other to build the economy of the future, families, homes, and communities. The minister calls for uniting in a positive path for a better future rather than pursuing division, denial, or making people invisible or calling them names. Speaker 0 closes by acknowledging the member’s remarks with a brief “ma’am,” signaling the end of that exchange.

Today, we celebrate America's diversity and our commitment to inclusion and equity. Yes, I just mentioned DEI.

I am from the Wetipu tribe of the Bundjalung nation, and my people have not been consulted. The Bajalang nation also has not been consulted.

The speakers address a troubling rise in Islamophobia and its impact on communities, urging action to address hate, fear, and prejudice that drive division in society. They emphasize that the problem is real for many people and that it is fueled by ignorance. The discourse centers on safeguarding safety, belonging, and shared values across diverse communities. "We've seen a devastating rise in Islamophobia." This opening underscores the perceived severity of the trend and sets the tone for the call to respond. The speakers insist that "We must stamp out the hate, fear, and prejudice that drives Islamophobia and division in our society," framing the issue as one that threatens social cohesion and harmony. The statement continues by highlighting the lived reality for many: "Because of the hatred fueled by ignorance that is still a lived reality for far too many Muslim Canadians." This assertion links ignorance to harmful consequences faced by Muslim Canadians. The discussion condemns the surge itself: "The surge in Islamophobia is simply appalling." The group broadens the concern to other contexts, noting that "The targeting of Australians based on their religious beliefs is not only an attack on them, but it's an attack on our core values." They define these core values as "The values of community, of generosity, and, yes, of sacrifice." The messaging stresses the negative outcomes of hatred, describing it as something that leaves people "feeling fearful and unsafe in their own country." The imperative is universal: "Australians should be able to feel safe and at home in any community." The speakers then affirm the principle of diversity within national identity: "Our Canada is a diverse country. We can pray differently. We can gather in different places of worship, but all of us come together." They call for unity around shared values represented through Eid, stating "All of us must come together around the values of Eid." Acknowledgment is given to those working to counter Islamophobia: "I'd like to thank Muslim organizations and mosques who work tirelessly to raise awareness and shine a light on the scale of Islamophobia." The group recognizes the tangible contributions made to tackling Islamophobia and promoting inclusion: "A substantial contribution to help tackle Islamophobia and focus on promoting acceptance and inclusion." The concluding reflection reframes the religious discourse through shared religious literacy: "Ibrahim or Abraham, Ishmael or Isaac, the lessons and values of Eid are the same."
