Scope and content
The Redress Advisory and Assistance Committee was created by the Redress Agreement to aid in the process of implementing Redress. Mass notarization events were held in preparation of Redress applications, regional offices were set up, and field workers were hired to better reach community members outside of city centers. Though Redress applications went to Ottawa, the Committee aided those who’s applications were rejected, or needed additional interviews.
