Exploring Reconciliation in St. Albert
Three Indigenous students interview St. Albert Mayor Cathy Heron to explore what reconciliation means to our community.
There is a need to update City material to reflect the tragic history of the residential school system. We aim to collaborate respectfully with Indigenous partners so changes aren't made unilaterally.
We respectfully acknowledge that we are on Treaty 6 territory, traditional lands of First Nations and Métis peoples.
The City recognizes that some of our public information needs to be updated to accurately reflect the tragic history of the residential school system and those responsible. We will work with local Indigenous partners to address this, and while we recognize the urgency, we are striving to do this in a respectful and proper manner. We understand that true change will require true action.
The City of St. Albert is committed to moving forward to address the relevant TRC Calls to Action.
Review the findings and recommendations of the Reconciliation St. Albert Engagement Report, which was presented to Council at a committee meeting on September 9, 2019.
