Truth and Reconciliation


The Head of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission is making an appearance in Sioux Lookout to hear stories from former students of the Indian Residential School system.

Justice Murray Sinclair will stop in the community May 12th and 13th.

Garnet Angeconeb is the Co-Chair of the Sioux Lookout Coalition for Healing and Reconciliation and notes this region is fortunate to have Sinclair visit.

He notes it will give families, staff and survivers a chance to open up dialouge in order to move on.
