The Office of the Treaty Commissioner (OTC) has been working since 2014 to build a common vision for successful truth and reconciliation, gathering the voices of First Nations, Métis and non-Indigenous citizens of Saskatchewan. At the same time, they have been using their stature as a neutral body to create Reconciliation Circles across the province, bringing together Indigenous and non-Indigenous leaders in 10 regions to build trust, relationships and explore joint action. In September 2019 the OTC released a Vision for Truth and Reconciliation through Treaty Implementation as well as a telephone survey capturing the current attitudes of Saskatchewan residents. They are currently working to build a framework for measuring success on truth and reconciliation.
