In the spirit of Truth and Reconciliation, the Ontario Nurses' Association recognizes that our work, and the work of our members,
takes place on many traditional Indigenous territories across Ontario.
We also wish to acknowledge and recognize that the Ontario Nurses' Association's head office is located on the traditional
territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and
the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto
is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit. This territory is also part of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum
Covenant, an agreement between the Anishinaabeg, Mississaugas, other allied First Nations, colonists, and settlers to peaceably
share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.
ONA is committed on our reconciliation journey as we engage in discussions, to learn together, and to support engagement
and partnerships with First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples, governments, organizations, and communities.
