Today, on #IndigenousVeteransDay, we recognize and honour First Nations, Inuit, and Métis veterans in Canada. Indigenous peoples have a long history of service in the @CanadianForces and we owe them a debt of gratitude. #WeWillRememberThem
We pay tribute to the many Indigenous volunteers who raised their hands to fight for freedom and human rights, which they themselves were often denied.

John, Sharp, Tim, and Julia are Indigenous veterans who served with courage and determination, and who I was honoured to spend time with this morning. To them, and to all Indigenous veterans who sacrificed so much for - and contributed so much to - our country: thank you.
