A small group of Black politicians from Atlantic Canada promised Wednesday to do more to encourage racialized communities to overcome their distrust of the political system.
The Canadian Congress of Black Parliamentarians said it is committed to ensuring that legislation at all levels of government reflects issues of concern in racialized communities.
Tony Ince, a Nova Scotia Liberal member of the legislature, says the biggest challenge for politicians of colour is engaging with communities that don't have faith in the political system.
