Indigenous Veterans Day, observed in Canada on November 8, honours Indigenous peoples who served in the military. It recognizes the contributions and sacrifices of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit veterans in various conflicts, including both World Wars, the Korean War, and peacekeeping missions. The day aims to raise awareness of the unique experiences of Indigenous veterans and their role in Canada’s history while also fostering a deeper understanding of the issues they faced both during and after their service.
