We acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe of Treaty #3 and the Métis people, and recognize the First Nation communities of Wauzhushk Onigum, Niisaachewan, and Washagamis Bay.
As a union, we recognize that solidarity, equality, dignity, and collective responsibility are at the heart of the labour movement. We acknowledge our responsibility to build respectful relationships with Indigenous peoples and to support the ongoing work of reconciliation through education, solidarity, and action.
