Communication Manager Veronika Stewart updated City Council on the progress on the city's Reconciliation initiative |
Prince Rupert City Council has nominated Councillor Reid Skelton-Morven and Councillor Teri Forster to be the council representatives in the ongoing process of developing a Reconciliation framework for the community.
The announcements came following a brief overview of the process to date from Veronkia Stewart the City's Manager of Communications, Engagement and Social Development.
"This recommendation is that council support the development of a Reconciliation/UNDRIP committee terms of reference through a process of table top discussions with Indigenous leaders and supported by staff and also that council delegate one or two councillors to participate in the table top discussion ... this speaks to the priority that Council set in the strategic plan to continue the implementation of the Reconciliation framework and prior to developing a terms of reference committee, we wanted to make sure that we had adequate community input into that process"
Ms. Stewarts comments were a follow up to a report delivered to Council previous to their Tuesday evening session, which provided some background on what is next for the process.
