City planning to implement recommendations from Truth and Reconciliation report

The City is trying to lead the way in implementing recommendations from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada.

 

The commission, which has been documenting what happened at Indian Residential Schools, came out with a report last month that lists 94 recommendations to address the history of abuse. At Monday’s council meeting, Mayor Dennis Fenske said of the 94 recommendationst, many pertain to municipal governments.

 

Fenske deferred the report to the Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs committee, who will look through each of the recommendations and bring a report back to council, with an action plan on how to implement them.   

 

Fenske said given the City’s geographical location, and the demographic of our community, it’s the right thing to do.
