Land Acknowledgement
Saskatchewan Polytechnic campuses are located on Treaty 4 & Treaty 6 territories and the homelands of the Métis. We respectfully thank the traditional custodians of this land and acknowledge the direct benefits we have from living and working in this place. At Saskatchewan Polytechnic, we are committed to the renewal of relationships — miyo wâhkôhtowin – and work towards a reconciled future wherein Indigenous and non-Indigenous people participate and thrive equitably in all aspects of our society. Our Indigenization declaration guides this work.
The Importance of Land Acknowledgements
Land acknowledgements are statements that express relationship to and respect for a particular place and the original people of that place. In traditional treaty territories, these acknowledgements express treaty relationship and responsibility.
