Yesterday's Truth & Reconciliation event at Frost Park was a moving one. The event was well-attended, and those who came out were fortunate to be part of a special day that offered powerful messages.
The afternoon was co-hosted by Melanie Robinson of Acadia First Nation and Mayor Pam Mood. Featured speakers included Dr. Viola Robinson, Former Commissioner for the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples, Joe B. Marshall, retired professor Mi'kmaw Studies, UCB and residential school survivor, and Mi'kmaq artist Ed Benham. Sincere thanks and gratitude goes out to these special guests and Acadia First Nation for walking alongside us as we work towards reconciliation.
Thank you to each person who took the time to attend, making the day a memorable one.
