A Métis-led non-profit planning a large affordable housing project in Saskatoon's Blairmore suburban centre is reacting to concerns it's moving too fast with the development — as well complaints it believes reflect an "antiquated view" on race and inclusion. Camponi Housing Corporation is proposing a complex at 727 and 803 Hart Rd. "Is there any specific reason why Parkridge/Blairmore has to get Camponi housing in our neighbourhood?" The Métis Nation-Saskatchewan, which is not with affiliated with Camponi, said it supports the Camponi project, adding the location is very strategic. Iwanchuk said most area residents are concerned about the project because of its pace and due to a lack of adequate consultation.
