Province of B.C. condemns racist graffiti in Kamloops
VICTORIA — Provincial Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation Scott Fraser has issued a statement condemning recently-discovered racist graffiti in Kamloops.
The racist and profane statements were painted on a Secwepemc sign near Batchelor Heights that had been set up to provide information for mushroom pickers.
In a statement, Fraser says the government “denounces and condemns in the strongest possible terms” the vandalism to the sign.
Fraser called the act “ignorant, cowardly and reprehensible.”
