"No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion." - Nelson Mandela "I do not like the word tolerance but could not think of a better one." - Gandhi What is the point of Tolerance Day?... The UN's International Day for Tolerance is to celebrate diversity and tolerance in practice and to ensure that we remember to make space for each other’s opinions. If opinions or ideas are objectionable or indefensible in our eyes, it is our duty to speak up and refute them. We must however try to understand the perspectives of others, develop a dialogue, and build a mutual understanding, culminating in peaceful co-existence. Tolerance is respecting the right others have to an opinion or practice, not the opinion or practice itself. Tolerance of intolerance is not tolerance. The two terms are antonyms like light and dark, good and evil. If we allow intolerance, then we are no longer a tolerant society. WHY TEACHING TOLERANCE MATTERS As UNESCO puts it, Education for tolerance should aim at countering influences that lead to fear and exclusion of others and should help young people develop capacities for independent judgment, critical thinking, and ethical reasoning. The diversity of our world's many religions, languages, cultures, and ethnicities is not a pretext for conflict but is a treasure that enriches us all. WHY WE NEED TOLERANCE Tolerance isn’t necessary if we are in agreement. We are allowed to disagree, but it is the manner and attitude with which we express our views which is important. Tolerance is a term often used interchangeably with ‘celebrating diversity’, and whilst both terms complement each other, ‘tolerance’ is the only concept that gets to the heart of the really difficult work in educating young people on how to address people, practices, and perspectives that they do not understand or do not agree with.

(See French below) Today, we remember the sacrifices that our Veterans made so we can enjoy the freedoms we have today. Wear your Poppy as a pledge to never for...get and at 11:00 am please pause to Remember. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. We will remember them. #RemembranceDay #CanadaRemembers #GetYourPoppy Aujourd'hui,a tradition du Souvenir se poursuit et les Canadiens tombés au combat ne seront pas oubliés. #PortezUnCoquelicot en gage de ne jamais oublier tous ceux qui servent. Ils ne vieilliront pas comme nous, qui leur avons survécu. Ils ne connaîtront jamais l'outrage ni le poids des années. Quand viendra l'heure du crépuscule et celle de l'aurore, nous nous souviendrons d'eux. Nous nous souviendrons d'eux. #LeCanadaSeSouvien #JourduSouvenir
