First Nations people call for continued support from Canadians after new holiday

First Nations people are calling on Canadians for continued support for causes ranging from education to helping homeless people, as they reflect on the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. 

"[There needs to be] continued support of the survivors. It's going to be needed as more schools are searched," said Cecil James, an advocate from Roseau River Anishinabe First Nation in Manitoba.

On Thursday, James participated in a march through downtown Winnipeg.

"I went out to support the residential school survivors that would be in attendance and I walked in memory of my mom and dad, aunts and uncles," said James. 

He said it was the largest march that he's ever been a part of. 

"I felt a strong sense of pride," he said.

"There was a lot of Indigenous people there. A lot of residential school survivors… and then we see a lot of non-Indigenous people that joined us. It's good. It's good. But I mean, that's a start."
