Vancouver Hyatt Regency apology to First Nations group after alleged discrimination
A First Nations group welcomes the public apology of a Vancouver hotel following allegations of anti-Indigenous racism, but will not return for its major events.
“After a fourth and urgent request to enter the restroom, the Hyatt Regency again barred access until the cultural advisor could no longer control their need to use the toilet, resulting in a public and humiliating incident,” BCAAFC said in a statement.The alleged incident happened on Feb. 24 as the association was hosting a two-day membership meeting.
The next day, association executive director Leslie Varley was denied the opportunity to speak with higher level management. In turn, the group concluded their planned meeting and left the hotel.General Manager Patrick Gosselin issued that apology Wednesday .
