The motto translates into English as "Truth and Reconciliation". It was inspired by the Commission organized by the parties of the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement. The Commission was part of a holistic and comprehensive response to the abuse inflicted on Indigenous peoples through the Indian residential school system, and the harmful legacy of those institutions. The motto is a reminder that, though the Commission has ended, the Calls to Action must not be forgotten and the ongoing work of reconciliation must continue in the north and across Canada. This work continues the labour of Christ who said of himself, "I am the way, the truth and the life." (Jn 14.6) and through whom, "God was pleased to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, by making peace through the blood of his cross." (Col 1.20)
