Recently the federal government passed legislation that designated September 30 as a National Day for Truth and Reconciliation to commemorate the history and legacy of Residential Schools in Canada.
The Ontario government will be observing September 30, 2021 as a day of commemoration to reflect on the tragic history and ongoing legacy of Residential Schools.
In order to properly honour the day at Tribunals Ontario, all tribunals, including the Assessment Review Board and Tribunals Ontario offices will be closed on September 30, 2021, providing an opportunity for staff and adjudicators to learn about and reflect on the history of Residential Schools and to honour the lives lost.
Those parties who have hearings and case conferences scheduled for September 30 will be notified and we will reschedule these matters as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
