We are deeply honoured to share that Elder Betty Ross of Pimicikamak Cree Nation (Cross Lake) - Residential School Survivor, Knowledge Keeper, and the heart behind the powerful film Return to the Falls - has been officially invited by the Office of the Governor General of Canada to a special ceremony at Rideau Hall in Ottawa on September 29, 2025.
This event will recognize Elder Betty and fellow Residential School Survivors for their strength, truth, and the legacy of healing they continue to offer all of us. It is a moment of profound honour for Elder Betty and the Return to the Falls film tour team - and a long-awaited recognition of years of courage, storytelling, and spiritual resilience.
Then, on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a special IMAX screening of Return to the Falls will take place at the Canadian Museum of History, followed by a nationally broadcast event on Parliament Hill from 3:00-4:30 PM EST. Elder Betty will be present on the Hill as a special guest, helping to guide the ceremony with her wisdom and spirit.
This milestone marks a culmination of years of hard work to finally bring Elder Betty's story - and the truth of thousands of other Survivors - into the light. From sacred teachings passed down by her father, to surviving the Residential School system, to becoming a voice for healing and change, Elder Betty is deeply honoured to stand in this moment - not just for herself, but for her people and for all Survivors.
