Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew recently announced a $20 million dollar grant to the University of Manitoba for the construction of a new National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) at the University of Manitoba. In 2022, the federal government committed $60 million for the same project.
The University’s National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation is considered a key component of reconciliation in Canada, partly because, among other functions, the NCTR staff maintain a Memorial Register of student deaths at Indian residential schools.
