[Canucks on Instagram] « Quand nous parlons de réconciliation, nous parlons d’éducation, et c’est de cela qu’il s’agit réellement pour nous tous. » Le chef Willie Sellars de la Première Nation de Williams Lake s’est adressé à l’équipe dans le vestiaire ce matin à l’occasion de la Journée nationale de la vérité et de la réconciliation.

I think it’s great that they do this and hope that everyone understands the message. I like this quote I saw:
« Reconciliation should not be about an apology, nor should it be like a holiday or a birthday.
When we have a ceremony once a year reconciliation should be like a river; continuous and always making change. » – Eddy Charlie
Hell yea Willie! Williams laker checking in. This man has done so much for the community.
Keep moving forward – the wlib is amazing and they are all about building community.
Love seeing my indigenous friends get their masters degrees, start businesses, and have hope for the future.
Couldn’t have happened without people like Willie moving forward and forging relationships with the greater community.
Williams Lake has grown so much since the 2000’s and at the core is the indigenous population. Way to go !
