City urged to create new Indigenous advisor position – SooToday.com

Nov. 20, 2023

Part of an effort to ‘enhance the pillars of a progressive community’

Ward 3 Coun. Ron Zagordo is asking city council to consider hiring an Indigenous policy and process renewal advisor.

Monday’s city council meeting will be live-streamed on SooToday starting at 5 p.m.
