We’re proud to share a few photos from this year’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation activities at 15 Wing Moose Jaw. The day brought members of the site community together for a pancake breakfast, volunteer activities, presentations and teachings hosted by CAE/Serco, and an opportunity to learn from an Indigenous dancer who shared the significance of regalia and traditional dance.
Thank you to everyone who participated and took time to learn, reflect, and honour Residential School Survivors, their families, and communities. Opportunities to listen, learn, and engage in meaningful dialogue help strengthen understanding and support the ongoing journey toward reconciliation.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

On September 30, we pause to honour the Survivors of residential schools, their families, and the generations affected by this tragic legacy. National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day provide an opportunity to reflect on the lasting impacts of residential schools, listen to Indigenous voices, and deepen our understanding of the ongoing journey toward reconciliation.

Since 2013, September 30 has also been recognized as Orange Shirt Day, inspired by the story of Phyllis Webstad. The orange shirt has become a powerful symbol of the culture, language, identity, and sense of belonging taken from Indigenous children through the residential school system. Its message remains clear: Every Child Matters.

Our Commitment
At CBO, we are committed to:

• Building respectful and meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities, organizations, and partners.
• Supporting collaboration that honours Indigenous rights, values, cultures, and traditions.
• Creating opportunities in employment, training, education, and community development.
• Listening, learning, and fostering greater understanding through ongoing engagement and awareness.
• Contributing to a future built on trust, respect, and reconciliation.

Today, we encourage everyone to take time to learn, reflect, and consider how each of us can contribute to reconciliation through our actions, both personally and professionally.

From August 13-16, 2026, Canadian Base Operators was proud to support Camp Molly Grey Highlands through a donation and the volunteer efforts of Teresa Caldwell and Chelsea Smith.

Camp Molly provides young women with hands-on firefighting training, leadership development, teamwork challenges, and authentic fire service experiences. Throughout the week, campers challenged themselves through activities including live fire training, forcible entry exercises, and other practical firefighter skills while building confidence and connections that will last a lifetime.

We're especially proud of Teresa and Chelsea, who volunteered their time and expertise to help campers learn new skills, explore career opportunities in emergency services, and gain valuable insight into the fire service profession.
In addition to sharing their experiences as firefighters at Army Training Centre - Central (Meaford), Teresa and Chelsea highlighted the many career paths that support emergency response across Canadian Base Operators' operations nationwide, including aircraft rescue firefighting, fire prevention and inspections, hazardous materials response, emergency communications, air traffic control, airfield operations, and specialized safety roles that help keep military training centres and aviation facilities safe.

Thank you to Camp Molly Grey Highlands, Grey Highlands Fire & Emergency Services, Hanover Fire & Rescue, and the many volunteers, sponsors, and community partners whose dedication helps inspire and empower the next generation of firefighters and community leaders.
