Ontario Recognizes Seventh Annual Treaties Recognition Week
November 07, 2022
TORONTO — Today, Greg Rickford, Minister of Indigenous Affairs, issued the following statement on Treaties Recognition Week:
Although many treaties were signed more than a century ago, these agreements remain relevant today and provide the foundation for ongoing co-operation and partnership between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.
I am deeply grateful to the many Indigenous Elders and knowledge keepers who generously share their understanding and perspectives on treaties each year.
I encourage everyone to learn more about the important role treaties play in our province’s history and heritage, and in our lives and relationships with each other today, as we move forward together to advance reconciliation.”
