Black History Month: Ours to tell

In December 1995, the Hon. Jean Augustine introduced a motion which led to the official recognition of February as Black History Month.

This month presents an opportunity to both acknowledge and celebrate the contributions of Black communities to Canada, while also listening and raising awareness about the issues Black Canadians face.

As part of my commitment to serving all residents of the most diverse riding in Calgary, I was honoured to celebrate Black History Month in Calgary Skyview.
