Wheatland Regional Library is honoured and excited to partner with Tim Poitras for the 2023 edition of their Truth and Reconciliation Speaker Series.

“We hope that our work with Tim and future speakers will be opportunities for everyone in the community to learn, build relationships and engage in actions that bring us forward along our shared journey of Truth and Reconciliation” says Desirae Munro, Branch Manager, Wheatland Regional Library.

Tim Poitras is Lakota/Dakota of the Muscowpetung First Nation on Treaty 4 Territory. He will be sharing his experiences as a Residential School survivor, Knowledge Keeper, and Sundance Chief in his all-ages presentation.

Wheatland Regional Library will be hosting a number of presentations in September as part of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Everyone is invited to attend an event in their area. Tim’s presentation in Warman will also be live streamed on the Wheatland Regional Library Facebook page to increase access for those unable to attend in-person.
