Six years after the Truth and Reconciliation Commission released its 94 Calls to Action, the vast majority of them have yet to be fully implemented by our Federal Government.

Six years on from the Government confirming its commitment, much is still to be done…. Your St. George's Social Justice and Outreach Team has collectively been working on an approach to continue to draw attention to these 94 Calls to Action.

We have decided that one way would be to send letters requesting continued action. This request could go to the Prime Minister, Ministers of Indigenous Relations and/or local MP’s. You also may wish to send a copy of your letter to our Church leaders.

This personal letter or email could express concerns regarding the urgency to plan and implement all 94 Calls to Action.

We have drawn up a sample letter that we hope will assist you. Please use all, or part of it as inspiration, and of course we encourage your own personal approach.

This is an interactive link and will show the status of each project. It will show an update on what has been completed, planned and proposed by our Federal Government. You will also see the important projects yet to be started. [Current as of Oct 4th 2021]

The 94 Calls to Action progress report in this article shows what the federal Government has been done, and is doing. It can be seen our government has completed 13 Calls to Action and has 29 more projects underway. 32 Calls to Action are in progress with projects proposed. 20 Calls to Action are yet to be started on important projects.

Thank you for considering this letter writing project to our Federal Politicians. You will be supporting these 94 Calls to Action that were released by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada.
