St Lawrence College recently opened the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Legacy Spaces at its Brockville and Cornwall campuses. The spaces are intended to promote truth, reflection, and discussion about Canada’s relationship with Indigenous peoples, residential schools, and truth and reconciliation. The spaces include displays of cultural items and information about residential schools from the area. They will serve as alternative learning spaces and a safe place for students, faculty, and staff to discuss reconciliation. SLC President Glenn Vollebregt noted that the spaces mark a “significant step forward in our commitment to Indigenous Ways of Knowing and Being.”
