SPEAKING NOTES ERIC ROSENDAHL MLA FOR WEST YELLOWHEAD CANADA 150 CELEBRATIONS CANADA 150 CELEBRATION... JASPER, ALBERTA Good morning! It is great to be here with all of you in this momentous year, marking the 150th anniversary of confederation. I’m pleased to bring greetings on behalf of Premier Rachel Notley and my colleagues with the Alberta NDP Caucus. I would also like to recognize representatives from the Town of Jasper, the Jasper Chamber of Commerce, Parks Canada and all of the other hard working people who have made this event possible today. One hundred and fifty years ago today the Constitution Act of 1867 was passed. As we gather here on the traditional territory of the indigenous peoples of West Yellowhead. We recognize that the history of this land goes back much further for Indigenous Peoples. For this region, this does not include the signing of any treaties or the creation of any Indian Reserves under the Canadian Indian Act, or any indigenous settlements under any other federal or provincial statute. The indigenous peoples of this region have yet to achieve any status or recognition but their contributions to the creation of communities should be celebrated. Our government has made a commitment to developing meaningful and ongoing relationships with Indigenous people in Alberta. A big part of that relationship comes from understanding Indigenous history, and from learning about the diverse cultures practiced throughout Alberta.
