Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation opens office on U of T campus – University of Toronto

The Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the University of Toronto Mississauga (MCFN) have reached a new milestone on the path to reconciliation: an MCFN office on campus.

The office, which opened last month, is located on the second floor of Maanjiwe nendamowinan, a building housing multiple social science and humanities departments that was named by the MCFN and means “gathering of minds.”

U of T Mississauga is situated on land that falls under the provisions expressed in Treaty 13-A and is the traditional land of MCFN as well as the Huron-Wendat and the Seneca.

“I give special recognition to UTM for constructing a physical office space for the Mississaugas of Credit,” says MCFN Councillor Veronica King-Jamieson, who is the community’s pillar lead for education and awareness.
