Recognition Statement by Commissioner Brenda Bourdeau: Shé: Kon. As a person of Indigenous heritage, I feel grateful to have the opportunity to acknowledge the land on which the New Frontiers School Board sits–the unceded territory of the Kanien’keha:ka. The Haudenosaunee–our Indigenous counterparts–served as guardians to protect the land, the history and the culture on which we live, work and study. We must remember their triumphs, we must remember their trials and we must remember their truth, while we continue to forge relationships built on gratitude, respect and friendship. Nia: wen.
