In a Facebook post Wednesday, First Nations advocate Connie Greyeyes notes a limited number of bags are available.
Residents are encouraged to walk on their own time, take a picture and tag Greyeyes or Knott in the post to be entered to win a “secret gift”.

At the April 26th council meeting, mayor and council hung a red dress in City Hall to support the day of remembrance and the Red Dress Project.
