Indigenous Land Acknowledgement

INDIGENOUS LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

As a provincial organization, Miramichi Heritage Network acknowledges that it carries out its work on the traditional unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet), Mi’kmaq and Peskotomuhkati (Passamaquoddy) peoples. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which these nations first signed with the British Crown in 1726.

The treaties did not deal with the surrender of lands and resources, but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations.

RECONNAISSANCE DU TERRITOIRE AUTOCHTONE

En tant qu’organisation provinciale, RĂ©seau du patrimoine Miramichi reconnaĂźt qu’il effectue son travail sur le territoire traditionnel non cĂ©dĂ© des peuples Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet), Mi’kmaq et Peskotomuhkati (Passamaquoddy). Ce territoire est couvert par les « TraitĂ©s de paix et d’amitiĂ© » que ces nations ont signĂ©s pour la premiĂšre fois avec la Couronne britannique en 1726. Ces traitĂ©s ne portaient pas sur la cession de terres et de ressources, mais reconnaissaient en fait les titres Mi’kmaq et Wolastoqiyik et portaient sur l’établissement de rĂšgles pour ce qui devait ĂȘtre une relation permanente entre les nations.
