ECE Instructor FT Term Thompson 24-137

at  University College of the North

UCN acknowledges that we are on the traditional
territories and homelands of many Indigenous
peoples, in particular the Cree, Dene, Red River
Métis, and Oji-Cree. Indigenous peoples have
continuously maintained homelands in northern
Manitoba since time immemorial. The First
Nations in the area that UCN serves entered into
treaty relationships with the Crown (within our
region these include signatories to treaties 4, 5 -
and the treaty 5 adhesion, and treaty 6 - located
within the treaty 5 adhesion). The territory has
also become home to other Indigenous peoples.
We uphold the treaties and collaborate with all
Indigenous peoples to share truth, reconciliation,
and learning.
