Form of work
SalaryUCN 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.
