Truth and Reconciliation rally taking place in Quesnel

A rally in support of Quesnel-area First Nations is set for later today (Tuesday).

The event, called “For Truth and Reconciliation – Enough Is Enough” recognizes the Lhtako and Lhoosk’uz Dene Nations as well as the Nazko and the Esdilagh First Nations.

It is scheduled to begin at 4:30 at the Nazko band office parking lot on Barlow Avenue near the West Fraser Centre.

It will continue with a walk to City Hall prior to the start at tonight’s (Tuesday) meeting at 5:30pm.

Back in March, Pat Morton, the wife of Quesnel Mayor Ron Paull distributed a controversial book on native residential schools called “Grave Error-How the Media Misled Us”.

The book was quickly condemned by Mayor and Council along with the Board of Education.
