The devastating discoveries of the remains of Indigenous children on the lands of former residential schools has reignited the call for reconciliation across the country. While the federal and provincial governments have more clear-cut roles to play, many in the municipal sector are wondering what they can do to advance reconciliation. Thomas and Jared speak with Hornepayne Mayor & OGRA Director Cheryl Fort. As only the second Indigenous female mayor in Ontario history, she is uniquely positioned to discuss the role of municipalities in the reconciliation process. After the podcast, Cheryl took the time to tell her family's story as well as her experience growing up as an Indigenous person in Northern Ontario. Look for that story on YouTube with the link in the show notes.
