Downtown Saskatoon was a sea of orange Tuesday to raise awareness around the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (TRC) Calls to Action. The Saskatoon Tribal Council (STC) led over 100 people through downtown. Tribal Chief Mark Arcand said more people have been willing to listen since the discovery of unmarked graves at residential schools in the province. Still, he said systems need to change, including child and family services and education in the Prairies.

The argument is that a shorter workweek would allow work to be spread around to multiple people, reducing unemployment.
