Hier, à l’Assemblée nationale du Québec, une commémoration soulignait le 5e anniversaire de la Loi 79 en mémoire des enfants disparus.
Le jeune artiste de Nutashkuan, Antoine Yanis Mestokosho, s’est joint à la commémoration et a remis une toile inspirée de l’illustration qu’il a créée pour le livre Mes droits et moi. Son œuvre témoigne de l’importance de préserver la mémoire, d’honorer les parcours des familles touchées et de promouvoir le respect des droits des enfants et des familles des Premières Nations.
Se souvenir, c’est aussi agir : pour faire la lumière, rendre justice et garantir que ces situations ne se reproduisent plus.
Un merci aux familles qui ont pris la parole pour raconter de vive voix leurs histoires, leurs deuils.
Nos pensées accompagnent les familles, les proches et les communautés. 🧡

Yesterday, at the Québec National Assembly, a commemoration marked the 5th anniversary of Bill 79 in memory of missing children.
A young artist from Nutashkuan, Antoine Yanis Mestokosho, took part in the commemoration and presented a painting inspired by the illustration he created for the book Mes droits et moi. His artwork reflects the importance of preserving memory, honouring the experiences of affected families, and promoting respect for the rights of children and First Nations families.
Thank you to the families who spoke and shared their stories and their grief firsthand
To remember is also to act: to seek truth, advance justice, and ensure this never happens again.🧡
