RCHS Land Acknowledgment

We respectfully acknowledge the traditional territory of the Anishnaabeg Algonquin and Haudenosaunee Nations, which were never ceded or legally signed away to the Crown or to Canada.I invite all of us to reflect on the territories in which we have the privilege to live, work and play on, and to commit ourselves to gaining knowledge, forging a new, culturally safe relationship, and contributing to reconciliation.We recognize that First Nations, Métis, and Inuit are traditional cultures of knowledge sharing and we understand we have a lot to learn. Learning is the spirit in which we come together.
