Happy Canada Day!
The Indigenous flag was designed by artist Curtis Wilson (d 2019).
The renowned artist was born and raised in the Ligwilda’xw territories and he was a member of the Wei Wai Kum First Nation in Campbell River.

@cardamomaddict@mstdn.ca if you want to show respect & honour #firstnations ppl, you should denounce the fact their land was occupied without their consent by white settlers & possibly your ancestors. your so-called government is continuing their #genocide on #FirstNation ppls whilst exploiting natural resources & destroying sacret places for profit & power.
