Residential Schools Apology

An esssential step on the path to reconciliation.

Published in today’s Vancouver Sun newspaper:

British Columbians join with aboriginal people in recognizing the importance of the apology yesterday for the horrific abuses in residential schools.
And we pledge to do our part to move forward from apology to action - to go forward with aboriginal people on the path to reconciliation, self-determination, dignity and justice that has so long been denied.

A message from BC’s unions - and our members province-wide.
