Decision Advice and Other Information
Cameron Stewart gave a presentation on this item
Summary
Cameron Stewart will address the TTC Board. This presentation explores an Indigenous perspective on transit wayfinding and examines how Indigenous knowledge systems can be meaningfully integrated into the TTC’s existing wayfinding framework. Using Queen Station as a case study, the presentation demonstrates how Indigenous principles, narratives, and spatial understandings can inform clearer, more inclusive, and culturally responsive navigation within the transit system. The approach highlights opportunities to enhance passenger experience while advancing reconciliation through visible and practical design interventions in the TTC network.
Cameron Stewart has been invited to present to the TTC Board in accordance with Section 11 of the TTC By-law to Govern Board Proceedings.
