The installations are part of an ongoing series of BC Reconciliation Award paddles will be displayed in Government House in Victoria and this year's installations also marks the call for nominations for the 2023 BC Reconciliation Awards. “As we launch the third year of the British Columbia Reconciliation Award, the image of the paddles resonates stronger than ever," said Janet Austin, Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia.
