The Dismantling Racism and Hate Act outlines the provincial government’s approach to addressing systemic hate, inequity, and racism and requires public sector bodies to develop equity and anti-racism plans. This requires municipalities to undergo a planning process to identify actions that will promote equity and anti-racism by considering the needs of underrepresented and underserved communities. The Municipality of Shelburne, Town of Shelburne and Town of Lockeport will be partnering to develop a joint plan for Eastern Shelburne County. Consultations and planning will take place January through March, with the goal of having the plan in place for April 2025.
