Disrupting Racism – Creating Safe Spaces for All
Across Manitoba, dedicated members of health-care teams provide care and services to all populations who call Manitoba home, in facilities located on the original lands of First Nations, Inuit and on the homeland of the Red River Métis Nation. We each have a role to play in fighting racism and in perpetuating reconciliation. It is up to each of us to commit to listening, to unlearning harmful behaviours, misconceptions, and biases and to incorporating values of respect, compassion, and equity into our daily practices and work.
