Following National Indigenous Peoples Day over the weekend, Thompson Mayor Colleen Smook says the occasion serves as a reminder of the important role Indigenous peoples have played in shaping the community.
Smook says recognition of Indigenous history, culture, and achievements has grown significantly over the past decade, reflecting a broader commitment to reconciliation and inclusion.
Smook says Thompson’s diversity is one of its greatest strengths, and continued recognition of Indigenous contributions that helps build a stronger and more inclusive community for future generations.
