Public Engagement

Phase Two: October 2019

The Task Force on the Commemoration of Edward Cornwallis and the Recognition and Commemoration of Indigenous History is hosting phase two of public engagement to seek public input.

Residents are invited to join facilitated conversation circles to discuss how the Halifax Regional Municipality should recognize and commemorate Indigenous history. 

As part of this important discussion, participants will also be asked what we should take into consideration when commemorating history in general.

The sessions will take place as follows: 
Monday, Oct. 28 from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Zatzman Sportsplex 
Tuesday, Oct. 29 from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre
 
Both facilities are accessible.

A notetaker will be present to capture the conversation at each table. 

Those interested in participating are asked confirm their attendance as space is limited for these sessions. Please RSVP online:
RSVP for Dartmouth session at Zatzman Sportsplex
RSVP for Halifax session at Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre
