International Day of the Elimination of Racism
To commemorate International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, Red Deerians are encouraged to celebrate the diversity of our culture and heritage, to learn how racism is embedded in our way of life, and to learn how we can all make changes to create a community that is inclusive and safe for all.
“Red Deer is fortunate to be home to people from incredibly diverse backgrounds, whether Indigenous, settled, or new to Canada. We are so fortunate to also have many extraordinary community organizations working towards a better tomorrow … As a municipality and as a Council, we are committed to working with our local multicultural organizations to understand, support and identify what we can do to discourage discrimination and build a more inclusive community.”
– Mayor Ken Johnston
