Yesterday, TA Structures joined Canadians across the country in recognizing Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day serves as a powerful reminder of the lasting impacts of residential schools, the children who never returned home, and the resilience of survivors and their families.
As a company, we respectfully acknowledge that we operate on the traditional and unceded lands of the Secwépemc peoples. We are grateful for the opportunity to live, work, and build here, and we remain committed to fostering meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities built on trust, respect, and collaboration.
This day also holds personal meaning for our ownership family. Co-owner Georgina Kyllo’s father, David Stead, was of Cree ancestry and would have been 80 years old this year. His grandmother, Mary Eninew, was a residential school survivor in Lac La Ronge, Saskatchewan. Records show that her younger sibling or relative tragically passed away at just 11 years old from tuberculosis while attending the school, where overcrowding and inadequate care contributed to illness and loss. These family histories remind us not only of the painful legacy of residential schools, but also of the strength and resilience carried forward by Indigenous families.
To mark the day, our staff gathered for a moment of silence to reflect, honor the children who never returned home, and acknowledge the survivors who carry this legacy.
At TA Structures, reconciliation is more than remembrance—it is about action. We are committed to learning, listening, and supporting Indigenous-led initiatives so these truths are never forgotten.
🧡 Every Child Matters.
