Today is #WorldTourismDay, and this year's theme of "Tourism and Peace" highlights the vital role of the tourism sector in fostering peace and understanding between nations and cultures and supporting reconciliation processes.
The O'de Piitaanemaan Pledge draws on the teachings of the Michi Saagiig Anishinaabeg, and represents a universal and evergreen value—respect—and serves to unify everyone for whom the region lives within their hearts.
Sign the Pledge today in support of World Tourism Day and help get us to 2000 signatures by the end of 2024! https://thekawarthas.ca/pledge/
