Parks Canada

Oct. 5,2020Parks Canada – $23.9M for Parks Canada to integrate Indigenous views, history and heritage into natural and historic areas. This investment in nature will help protect species at risk, expand and manage protected areas, and facilitate partnerships with the provinces, territories, and Indigenous peoples to ensure a clean and thriving environment for future generations.

Sask Culture

SaskCulture embarked upon a very special journey called Resilience and Respect: Canada 150 and Beyond. This project, funded by Canadian Heritage, helped us to build and strengthen our relationships with the Buffalo People Arts Institute, Gabriel Dumont Institute, Saskatchewan Indigenous Cultural Centre, Saskatchewan Aboriginal Writing Circle Inc., and Saskatchewan Arts Board. Each of these organizations delivered important and impactful cultural programming that highlighted the resilience of Indigenous peoples, cultures and languages in response to Canada’s sesquicentennial.
