Quarterback reflects on success in 2024 after an injury ended his 2023 season.
The Saskatchewan government will make good on its promise to apologize to survivors of the Sixties Scoop.
An invitation sent to the 650 CKOM newsroom by the Saskatoon Indian and Métis Friendship Centre shows the apology is scheduled for Jan. 7, 2019.
The Sixties Scoop refers to the practice of government welfare workers taking Indigenous children from their families and communities during the 1960s until the 1980s.
They were then placed in foster care or adopted and brought up without their Indigenous cultures.
From October to the end of November this year, sharing circles were held across the province to help the government inform the apology.
Former premier Brad Wall had promised there would be an apology back in 2015.
Last year he had hoped it would happen before his retirement, but it didn’t come to fruition.
According to the invitation, the apology will be given at the Legislative Building in Regina the morning of Jan. 7, 2019.
