Statement from the Mayor – Black History Month

February is a month where as a city and community we recognize Black Canadians and their communities and celebrate their many achievements and contributions across our country, including here in Greater Sudbury. Through the amazing work and dedication of Black Canadians and their communities, we have become a welcoming, diverse and inclusive city.

I do hope we are all able to safely celebrate, take part and spend this month to learn more about our shared history and focus on how we can all move forward as a community to ensure that our city thrives as a multi-cultural centre in the region that attracts current and new Canadians to the north where they can live, thrive and enjoy everything we have to offer.
