About the role

Nations in the area that UCN serves entered into
treaty relationships with the Crown (within our
region these include signatories to treaties 4, 5 -
and the treaty 5 adhesion, and treaty 6 - located
within the treaty 5 adhesion). The territory has
also become home to other Indigenous peoples.
We uphold the treaties and collaborate with all
Indigenous peoples to share truth, reconciliation,
and learning.
