The Exhibition Team acknowledges that Queen\u2019s University is situated on traditional Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee territory. We are grateful to live, learn, and play as uninvited guests upon the traditional territories of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy and the Anishinabek Nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acknowledging this traditional territory is to recognize its longer history, one predating the establishment of the earliest European colonies and migrations of peoples from around the globe to this place. It is also to acknowledge this territory\u2019s significance for the Indigenous Peoples who lived, and continue to live, upon it and whose practices and spiritualities were tied to the land and continue to develop in relationship to the territory and its other inhabitants today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is also a significant M\u00e9tis community as well as First Peoples from other Nations across Turtle Island present here today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
