The Path Here | The Path Ahead
On Tuesday, September 30, Rewind joins hundreds of radio stations across Canada in A Day to Listen, in recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Produced by the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund (DWF), this special 12-hour broadcast runs from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. local time.
This is the fifth year broadcasters have come together under this initiative, amplifying Indigenous voices, stories, and perspectives. The first A Day to Listen was launched after the discovery of 215 unmarked graves at the former Kamloops Residential School in 2021, and saw more than 540 stations participate across Canada.
Why “The Path Here | The Path Ahead”?
It’s been ten years since the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada released its Final Report and its 94 Calls to Action—marking a crucial moment for all of us, Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike, to reflect on our past and what lies ahead in reconciliation efforts.
On this day, we will feature conversations with Indigenous leaders, Elders, creators, activists, and thinkers. Together, we’ll explore questions such as:
-
What has brought us to this moment?
-
What does progress look like—and where do we still have far to go?
-
How can each of us contribute to meaningful reconciliation in our communities?
We invite all our listeners to pause, listen deeply, and commit to the work ahead. Reconciliation isn’t a moment—it’s a journey.
Tune in all day — 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
