Calgary’s 10-Year Reconciliation Journey | Calgary News

Calgary marks a decade since committing to Truth and Reconciliation, with city council gathering for their third annual Indigenous-focused meeting—just ahead of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Progress is being made through programs in sports, housing, firefighting, and more, guided by the 2016 White Goose Flying report honoring Jack White Goose Flying, who died at a Calgary residential school. The city’s Indigenous Relations Office, launched in 2020, has signed agreements with Blackfoot Confederacy and Siksika Health Services, with another pending. A major milestone: a permanent memorial for residential school children at The Confluence, set for unveiling in 2028, designed with Indigenous leadership to honor survivors and prevent future harm. Mayor reminds us: reconciliation is a journey—not a finish line—and requires ongoing collaboration to build a truly inclusive, safe community.
