Opinion
Siloam Mission CEO Jim Bell has resigned, and the downtown not-for-profit that cares for our city’s homeless population, has installed a new board chairman, in the wake of a simmering controversy over Indigenous programming.
It started last November, after nearly a dozen current and former employees of Siloam wrote a letter to the board of directors, accusing Bell of creating "a hostile and divisive working environment" while maintaining a "reluctance, refusal, and often outright denial" of "culturally appropriate programming."

In traditional Indigenous societies, there was no homelessness.
Opinion
In traditional Indigenous societies, there was no homelessness.
No one was left out of the feast, a place to sleep, or turned away from the lodge, unless they chose to be alone.
Even in our creation stories, when humans were placed on Earth, a loving and accepting Creation accepted, nurtured, and adopted them.

Organization calling on Siloam Mission CEO to resign


 
WINNIPEG --
A new grassroots organization is calling for the CEO of Siloam Mission, a Christian humanitarian organization that serves Winnipeg’s homeless population, to resign.
‘Not My Siloam’ is a new group made up of former Siloam Mission staff members and concerned citizens. The group says Jim Bell, Siloam Mission’s CEO since 2017, has been a barrier to the inclusion of Indigenous traditions and cultural practices in Siloam Mission services.
“There was not a lot of consistent space” dedicated to cultural practices, said Delvina Kejick, the former spiritual and cultural care coordinator at Siloam Mission.
“There was no space, there was no place that existed that way.”
