Americans have a holiday called Labor Day where service workers still have to work. I wouldn't read much into it.

What I meant is that it's an important historical event that the first settlers were welcomed. Not that this says anything about respect towards modern day first nations.

Much of what is taught about that historical event didn’t really happen, or was conflated together. No real evidence to suggest it’s proof of the settlers being welcomed any more than tolerance of a technologically superior group of people.
