National Indigenous Peoples Day, observed every June 21, was first declared "National Aboriginal Day" in 1996 by Governor General Roméo LeBlanc. This recognition followed years of advocacy from various Indigenous groups. The day was officially renamed in 2017 and is now a key part of Canada's summer cultural celebrations.
