CUPE Local 5852 wants to acknowledge that it operates on the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge the territories and lands across Turtle Island, that our members are from.
We are honoured to be here as guests on this land that Indigenous peoples have cared for and continue to care for.
