Anglicans Working on the MDGs
The Millennium Development Goals are 8 international development goals that all 192 United Nations member states and 23 international organizations agreed, in 2000, to achieve by 2015. Our Primate, the National Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada, and the Archbishop of Canterbury all encourage our work on achieving these goals. See the links below for more information and ways of working.

Niigaanibatowaad: FrontRunners
In 1967, ten Indigenous young men were chosen to carry the torch from St. Paul, Minnesota to Winnipeg for the Pan American Games. When the runners arrived at the stadium, they were not allowed to enter. Instead, a non-Aboriginal runner was given the honour of carrying the torch inside. Thirty-two years later, the province of Manitoba issued an official apology to the runners, nine of whom were students at redisdential school.
A Charter for Racial Justice
This charter outlines the Anglican Church of Canada’s commitment to fight racism. It was approved by the Council of General Synod in March 2007 and is intended to complement a more detailed policy for employees and members of General Synod, its committees, councils, and board.
