“The funding of $1.4 million will support finalizing the functional program, development of design, program planning, and construction procurement activities,” the statement said, in part. Planning and design work will include development of space for culturally appropriate care and feature culturally appropriate design, the statement continued. Local First Nations organizations, such as Prince Albert Grand Council and Métis Nation Saskatchewan will be engaged as partners on the project to lead and inform the development of this space and provide guidance and leadership on the project regarding decisions impacting First Nations and Metis people.
