Treaty Day Event Postponed

The province says this year’s Treaty Day celebration scheduled for Monday in Halifax has been postponed because of the continuing effects of post-tropical storm Fiona.

It says the government, the Mi’kmaq Grand Council, Assembly of Nova Scotia Mi’kmaw Chiefs and the Treaty Day Committee made the decision.

October 1 is Treaty Day in Nova Scotia and marks the start of Mi’kmaq History Month.

The province will recognize Friday as Truth and Reconciliation Day as planned.

Provincial government offices, schools and regulated child care will be closed that day.
