RECONCILIATION: MOVING FORWARD TOGETHER - APPENDICES
F-8
Table F-6: Final Thoughts Provided 1. Any final thoughts you would like us to know?
As you can see from my responses, I see a major need to identify the Métis as a unique cultural group and not lumped in with other Indigenous groups. The Inuit fit this model as well. The report is carefully written and thorough. It is broad in its approach and rightly brings the board and its governance into the process. I liked that learning was multifaceted (written, film, documentaries etc.) as a means of engaging the entire person in learning. I have no further input or recommendations currently, the document and the recommendations are a great summary or the challenges and possible solutions. thank you for including me in this process. I realize that it may be a living document and some of the recommendations will/may take longer to come to fruition (True Reconciliation), this document is a solid starting point for what needs to happen next. I look forward on how we can all move forward with Reconciliation, both amongst Organizations and within ourselves. I have no further feedback and appreciate everything you have done to do this work in a good way I don’t have anything to add. Well done and a thorough insightful report and road map. It was an honour to participate and contribute. It all seems to look good to me thank you. I did a cursory of the draft Reconciliation: Moving Forward Together Report and thought it read very well. I do not have any recommendations for change. Thank you for the opportunity to offer feedback. I’ve read the report and feel it has captured my thoughts so I won’t be offering feedback. "Make cultural awareness training mandatory for all staff and available to Board members" This should be mandatory for all board members. If you do not have the board members trained, how can we have change within BC Housing? This maybe the wrong place to bring this up but I'm going to anyways. I really believe that if you want to try and come together, through reconciliation, then there should be an expectation that any housing built for indigenous people's, should have indigenous people's involved in the building of these buildings. This supports the coming together of indigenous and non-indigenous people's and gives indigenous a sense of ownership or pride in the housing within their communities. Other than those two points, this was really well done!
