City statement on legacy of Sir John A. Macdonald and engagement with the Indigenous community
June 9, 2021
The City of Kingston issued a statement today to inform the public of ongoing its discussions and engagement with community members and organizations, including members of the Indigenous community, regarding the legacy of Sir John A. Macdonald.
“This is an important community conversation. I can assure you that staff, councillors, and myself are listening to all of your comments and feedback and we’re committed to working with Kingstonians to find the best path forward,” says Mayor Bryan Paterson.
“We know that community members are re-examining what that path forward looks like since we learned that 215 children have been found in unmarked graves near Kamloops, B.C. and all of us as Canadians must learn more and seek truth as a commitment to reconciliation.”
