The Town of Kindersley joins the Multicultural Council of Saskatchewan in recognizing Saskatchewan Multicultural Week from November 18 to 26, 2017. This year's campaign, "Who's Your Multicultural Superhero?," encourages you to consider the individual or group, real or fictitious, who inspires you with their super powers for respect and inclusion. A Multicultural Superhero is someone who creates welcoming and inclusive communities by:
- Protecting and celebrating all cultures
- Proudly embracing and sharing traditions
- Battling “Villains”, such as racism, discrimination, disrespectful ideologies, oppressive social systems and institutions, etc.
- Leaping tall barriers to build bridges for intercultural connections
- Activating a power magnet to draw diverse people together for creative innovation
- Demonstrating super vision and strength to achieve equality and equity for all
Mayor Rod Perkins made the official proclamation for Saskatchewan Multiculturalism Week during the November 14 Regular Meeting of Council. Kindersley residents are encouraged to consider how the community benefits in welcoming people from many culture, and to participate in educating themselves about multiculturalism at www.mcos.ca.
The Multicultural Council of Saskatchewan exists to promote, foster, improve, and develop multiculturalism in the economic, cultural, and political life of Saskatchewan while working to achieve equality of all residents.
