Every February, Canadians come together to celebrate and recognize the accomplishments of Black people in Canada through various events and festivities that take place throughout Black History Month. The 2023 theme for Black History Month is “Ours to tell”. This concept invites Canadians to enter an inclusive conversation and further understand the experiences, accomplishments, trials, and triumphs of Canadian Black communities throughout history. The Canadian Government invites all Canadians to uncover the stories behind the nation’s communities and discover how they have helped shape Canada into the country we know today.
