Two years ago, the final report of the Truth & Reconciliation Commission was received, with tolling of bells and interviews in the media from coast to coast to coast. A year later, Canada formally removed its objector status to the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples–almost a decade after it was adopted by the United Nations.

But the Indian Act is incompatible with this Declaration. Much work remains to be done.  What are the sticking points?  Where can progress be made?  

On Saturday, May 20, 2017, Montrealers are invited to a one-day interfaith conference to plan practical projects to advance reconciliation.

Place: Westmount High School, 4350 Ste Catherine Street West.

Time: 9 am to 5 pm

Cost: $10 freewill offering
