Secret Path will arrive on October 18, 2016, in a deluxe vinyl and book edition, and as a book with album download. Downie’s music and Lemire’s illustrations inspired The Secret Path, an animated film broadcast by CBC in an hour-long commercial-free television special in Sunday, October 23.
- Secret Path began as 10 poems inspired by a 1967 magazine article. Initially, Downie wrote Secret Path as 10 poems, inspired by Wenjack's story, and how he died running away from the Cecilia Jeffrey Indian Residential School near Kenora, Ont., in October, 1966.
- Downie was accompanied by some well-known friends. All of the vocals and guitar parts were written by Downie; all other instrumentation was by Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew and the Stills' Dave Hamelin.
- All proceeds from the album and book are being donated to help fund Truth and Reconciliation. Proceeds from the sale of Secret Path are going to the Gord Downie Secret Path Fund for Truth and Reconciliation through the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation at the University of Manitoba, which was created to ensure the dark legacy of the residential school system is never forgotten.
