Reconciliation has not returned to the back burner as Canada pushes forward to develop major projects, Gov. Gen. Mary Simon said in an interview just ahead of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
Simon told The Canadian Press she sees a firm commitment to ensure Indigenous Peoples are involved as the major projects process evolves.
“We need an economy for Indigenous Peoples as well,” Simon said. “You can’t thrive — and survive — without an economic base.”
