Acknowledgement of Territory
The Rehabilitation Therapy Student Society acknowledges that Queen’s
University is situated on traditional Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and Huron-
Wendat territory. To acknowledge this traditional territory is to recognize its
long history predating colonization and to recognize this land’s significance
for the Indigenous peoples who lived, and continue to live, upon it. The
members of our Rehab Student Society make up a diverse group of students
coming from many different corners of the world. We are grateful for the
opportunity to meet on these lands, while building relationships and learning
from our connections. We acknowledge that for many of us, this journey was
made possible in part by the direct consequences of colonization and the
systematic marginalization/ discrimination of Indigenous Canadians.
Subsequently, we recognize we have a responsibility to work
towards reconciliation and rebuilding relationships with our Indigenous
friends, family and community members.
