Indigenous health clinic in Ottawa urges hospitals to confront racism in their ranks – National Observer
October 21st 2022
When Allison Fisher gives a presentation to hospitals in the Greater Ottawa region in late November, she’ll be gauging how serious they are about reconciliation and confronting anti-Indigenous racism.
Whether or not there’s hope the meeting will lead to change is an open question.
“Ask me after,” Fisher told Canada’s National Observer. “I’m a good reader of people. I’ve been in many rooms throughout my career here, many rooms filled with people who aren’t the least bit interested, and people who are semi-interested, and people who have the potential to be supportive.
“We can recognize that ingredient pretty easily.”
