RECOGNIZING INDIGENOUS LEADERS

The Indigenous Peoples Atlas of Canada, a first-of-its-kind educational resource that explores the stories and perspectives of First Nations, Métis and Inuit, was completed by the RCGS this year. The leaders of the Indigenous partner organizations that led its development — (from left) National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation director Ry Moran; Indspire president and CEO Roberta Jamieson; Métis National Council president Clément Chartier; Assembly of First Nations National Chief Perry Bellegarde; and Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami president Natan Obed — were presented with RCGS Gold Medals, and participated in a discussion moderated by David Gray, host of CBC Radio’s The Calgary Eyeopener.
