Abstract:
Community Conversation: Possible Name Change kicks off March 1, 2022.

After much planning, the Possible Name Change Joint Working Group, a collaborative Community Accord committee of City of Powell River and Tla’amin Nation elected officials and residents, is kicking off public engagement about the request from Tla’amin Nation for the City of Powell River to consider a name change. 

The first engagement activities are the launch of a website and a survey (powellriver.ca/pnc). Paper copies of the survey are available at the library, recreation complex, and City Hall. The survey is open from March 1 to March 25. This spring there will be a variety of public activities to continue sharing information about the history and identity of this place, and to be in conversation.

Residents are also encouraged to write to the Mayor and Council with their viewpoint, including name and address, to [email protected] or by letter to City Hall.
