At their last Council meeting, the city of Quesnel got approval to receive $49,330 in funds from the 150 Time Immemorial Program.
The reason that the city was looking to get this funding is so they can invest it into projects that bring more attention to suppressed or forgotten stories from underrepresented or marginalized groups.
And with these tales being becoming more publicized, the hope is that the story of BC will become more balanced and complete.
One of the projects will include building photomurals, however suitable locations to build them have not yet been determined.
