Etobicoke South Humber Monument
Posted on August 9, 2023
In the spirit of reconciliation and collaboration, in early 2021, three groups came together to develop new language and redesign the South Humber Monument (formerly known as the Brûlé Monument). United by the desire to recognize the historic Humber River’s heritage in a more appropriate, inclusive, and accurate way, directors from the Etobicoke Historical Society (EHS), along with representatives from the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and La Société d’histoire de Toronto are proud to announce the installation of a new plaque and rededication ceremony to take place in late summer.
“The Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation (MCFN) appreciate the opportunity to work in collaboration with the Etobicoke Historical Society to create a new plaque to recognize the Humber River’s heritage. The new plaque supports MCFN’s commitment to their responsibility to the water and the land.” Councillor Erma Ferrell
