Ontario Tech acknowledges the lands and people of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation.

We are thankful to be welcome on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered by the Williams Treaties and are the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to many Indigenous nations and peoples.

We acknowledge this land out of respect for the Indigenous nations who have cared for Turtle Island, also called North America, from before the arrival of settler peoples until this day. Most importantly, we acknowledge that the history of these lands has been tainted by poor treatment and a lack of friendship with the First Nations who call them home.

This history is something we are all affected by because we are all treaty people in Canada. We all have a shared history to reflect on, and each of us is affected by this history in different ways. Our past defines our present, but if we move forward as friends and allies, then it does not have to define our future.

September 30 is Orange Shirt Day & the National for Truth and Reconciliation Day

Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a time for learning and reflecting on Canada’s involvement in the former Indian residential school system and the intergenerational impact it has caused on Indigenous communities, families, and individuals. It is a time for recognition, remembrance, and to honour survivors.

Browse through our Indigenous Studies research guide (as well as  K-12 teacher resources), plus print books, ebooks, and streaming video in our collection.

Find additional resources on the Indigenous Hub, including where to buy Orange Shirt Day apparel, events from September 25 to 29, and self-directed resources.
