Module 3 – Post 4 – A Gesture of Reconciliation

People gathered from far and wide at Saskatoon City Hall on October 25th to witness the historic occasion of the raising of two new flags.  Two new Flags representing Treaty Six and the Metis were raised as a gesture of openness and good faith, and to recognize and honour the First Nations Peoples.  The ceremony included presentations from many different First Nations groups: singing, dancing, fiddle music and drumming.  Speeches from local representatives, First Nations elders and Lieutenant-Governor Vaughn Solomon were included as well.
