Sarnia City Council is taking time to consider a possible change to the Traditional Territory Acknowledgement so staff can look at the legalities surrounding the wording.
Two recommendations from the UNDRIP (United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples) Working Group were presented during Monday’s council meeting: to update the territory acknowledgment and for communications staff to help promote events and awareness campaigns such as Red Dress Day and Orange Shirt Day.
