"Our leaders need to show the way, but no matter how many deals and agreements they make, it is in our daily conversations and interactions that our success as a nation in forging a better place, will ultimately be measured. It is what we say to and about each other in public and in private that we need to look at changing."
-Honourable Justice and Senator Murray Sinclair, Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada
