Alex Paul: Unsubstantiated Fears

ALEX PAUL: Unsubstantiated fears associated with north-end New Dawn project (Cape Breton Post)

Cape Breton Post, July 26 2023

Alex Paul, Chair New Dawn Board of Directors

One of the great joys of serving on the board of directors for New Dawn Enterprises is continuously witnessing the impact that a community-focused organization can have on the region it serves.

A recent undertaking of New Dawn — the construction of 24 supportive affordable housing units under the Rapid Housing Initiative — will see residents of the Cape Breton Regional Municipality taken off the street and housed. In my time as a director, I have not seen a project that will have a more immediate, direct, and far-reaching impact. As chair of the board, it is an honour to be supporting New Dawn staff as they work towards the realization of this project; one that is very much a reflection of New Dawn’s values and mandate.

We are in Unama’ki, one of the seven traditional and unceded ancestral territories of the people of Mi’kma’ki. This territory is covered by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship which the Mi’kmaq first signed with the British Crown in 1726.

We wish to recognize and honour this understanding of the lands on which we reside. It is from here, on these lands, that we work to create and support a culture of self-reliance and vibrancy.
