WHERAS Inclusion, acceptance, and equity are important approaches to the diversity of residents living in any community, especially in our growing and changing region; and WHERAS March 21 is recognized as the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination; and WHERAS The Simcoe County Local Immigration Partnership (SCLIP) is a community partnership focused on the development of settlement strategies for newcomers. These strategies bring together and support service delivery to newcomers in Simcoe County while promoting positive relationships, opportunity, and use of local resources effectively; and WHERAS This month presents an opportunity to further the resolve as we pause to celebrate the diversity of the human race rather than allow our dissimilarities to become a reason for racial separation; and WHERAS We encourage all to celebrate the differences in each other such as race, culture, colour, national origin, gender, age, disability and religion; and WHERAS During this period we will be hosting an awareness campaign and encouraging residents to take a stand and support #ITStarts to share their commitment to embracing acceptance, anti-racism and diversity. I DEPUTY MAYOR Anita Dubeau on behalf of Town of Penetanguishene Council, do hereby proclaim March 2020 as #ITStarts month in the Town of Penetanguishene.
