“Like the sunflowers in the field when the light fades, we can turn to each other to gain connected strength. For my immigrant grandparents, who were interned during World War One in Canada, let the sun shine on your faces. And to my grandchildren, make your tomorrow be better than today!”

"The Sunflower represents all nationalities that have had their freedoms and rights taken. As a symbol of strength, but also as a symbol of rebirth and creative energy to renew.
​
Through conversation we can recognize those who suffered from these injustices and, through greater awareness, ensure that similar injustices are less likely to be repeated in the future as we work towards a new renewal of Canada."
