I took this photo on a trip to PEI last September. As soon as I snapped it, I knew it would be my 2020 Canada Day post for The Daily Mobile. Little did I know just how appropriate it would be to represent the lived reality of this year.
Like the rest of the world, it’s been a difficult six months for Canada and Canadians. The pandemic has battered our physical, mental and economic health, and horrific incidents of police brutality have forced us to confront the difficult issues of systemic racism and the historical injustices suffered by Indigenous, Black and People of Colour that have scarred our nation’s history.
Canada is by no means perfect, and there is much work to be done to improve this country for everyone who lives here. But it is a country that I love and it is the country that I am fortunate to call home.
Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦
