Trudeau speaks to packed theatre for Saskatoon town hall
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a whirlwind visit to Saskatoon Wednesday, taking questions from the public at a town hall hosted by the University of Saskatchewan.
Indigenous, health and education issues were top of mind for members of the audience during the ninth stop of a cross-country engagement tour for the PM.
Trudeau said the country had failed to live up to its responsibilities to First Nations and Metis communities.
“[Reconciliation] is going to be a long process,” he said. “There are fundamental injustices that continue that you just can’t snap your fingers, or put down a pile of money and hope to fix.”
