A Call for Heritage — and What Happens Next
A new call for heritage nominations in Truro is raising a bigger question: how does the Town recognize history — and how does it treat it?
Less than a year after a major public installation honouring African Nova Scotian women educators was unveiled at Ford and Robie, the project became the subject of a contested naming process that left key contributors and community members questioning transparency, communication, and follow-through.
Now, as nominations open for the Town’s annual Heritage Award, that same project stands as one of the clearest examples of the kind of work the award is meant to recognize.
Submissions close April 28.
