The St. James-Assiniboia Pioneer Association would like to clarify its position during the current municipal election.
As a community organization and steward of Grant’s Old Mill, the Association is non-partisan. We do not endorse, support or oppose any political candidate. Statements, campaign materials or public comments made by current or former Board members, volunteers or individuals associated with Grant’s Old Mill represent their personal views unless specifically identified as an official statement authorized by the Association.
We are aware that information regarding Grant’s Old Mill, its restoration, funding, Cuthbert Grant Day and the work of the Association is currently being shared publicly. We encourage members of the community to recognize that not all information being circulated necessarily reflects the Association’s records or the full history of these initiatives.
The restoration of Grant’s Old Mill, advocacy with government, fundraising and the continued development of Cuthbert Grant Day have been collective efforts involving current and former Board members, volunteers, community partners, government representatives, sponsors and supporters.
The Association respects the right of individuals to speak about their own experiences and contributions. However, individual statements should not be interpreted as representing the official position of the St. James-Assiniboia Pioneer Association unless expressly authorized by the Board.
Where necessary, the Association will provide factual clarification based on its official records to ensure that information concerning its governance, finances, projects and activities is represented accurately.
Our focus remains on the restoration and future of Grant’s Old Mill, the continued success of Cuthbert Grant Day, and preserving and sharing the important history of this site for future generations.
