Description:

In season 5 of MuniCast we are discussing how truth and reconciliation relates to municipalities.

In this episode we are joined by Kevin Harris, Account Executive - Indigenous Business Market with SaskTel to learn about how SaskTel is connecting communities throughout Saskatchewan, and the value of partnering with Indigenous led organizations.

Kevin is a settler in the Treaty 4 area where he and his family live, learn and work and has been employed with SaskTel for the past 42 years, much of that time as an Account Executive in the Financial Services Sector, and for the last 8 years as an Account Executive with the Indigenous Business Development Team.

Kevin’s journey into understanding Truth and Reconciliation began about 24 years ago when as a family they became foster parents. Kevin and Lori-Lee are very proud parents of two Indigenous children who are now adults and are active in connecting and celebrating with them their culture, ceremonies and communities. The work that Kevin does with the Indigenous communities and the personal life they lead are interconnected and intersect regularly. Kevin values the relationships he has with Indigenous leaders and knowledge keepers, and is on a constant journey to continue learning how to be a good ally for Indigenous views and practices.
