National Indigenous Languages Day

Posted on Tuesday, March 31st, 2026

Today, we mark National Indigenous Languages Day.

At Algonquin College, we continue our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation by supporting the reclamation, revitalization, strengthening, and maintenance of the Anishinàbe language.

On this day, we invite everyone to reaffirm their support for Indigenous peoples as they work to protect and strengthen their languages so that no language is left behind.
