CONVOCATION 2026 | 3
There are 46 treaties covering Ontario and five
governing the land on which Georgian is located.
Acknowledging the land we live, work and play on – one that
generously provides for and sustains us – is one step on our
collective journey toward truth-telling and reconciliation.
Georgian College acknowledges that all campuses are situated on
the traditional land of the Anishnaabeg people. The Anishnaabeg
include the Odawa, Ojibwe and Pottawatomi nations, collectively
known as the Three Fires Confederacy. Georgian College
is dedicated to honouring Indigenous history and culture and
committed to moving forward in the spirit of reconciliation
and respect with all First Nation, Métis and Inuit people.
THIS IS
TREATY LAND.

TREATY 18 Nottawasaga Purchase (1818)
TREATY 19 Ajetance Purchase (1818)
TREATY 45.5 Saugeen Tract (1836)

Georgian is on a journey of truth
and reconciliation and we've made
Indigenization a priority.
