The First Nation presented the group with land acknowledgement plaques to display at their offices.
The Lheidli T’enneh First Nation has accepted a pledge by Prince George Pediatricians, a group representing eight pediatricians in Prince George, to acknowledge the traditional territory of the Lheidli T’enneh.
The First Nation presented land acknowledgement plaques to the doctor group, which will be displayed at their three offices in the city. “When our members and other Indigenous people come to your offices, they’ll know your group is sincere about working together with all people,” Lheidli T’enneh Coun. John West said. “I think this is a good start to building the relationship between Indigenous people and the health care system.”
West said the relationship between Indigenous people and Canada’s health care system has often been challenging. “We want our offices to feel like safe and welcoming spaces,” Dr. Kirsten Miller said, on behalf of her colleagues Dr. Bill Abelson, Dr. Tahir Chaudhry, Dr. Simon Earl, Dr. Emilie Jean-St-Micheal, Dr. Lara Malks-Jjumba, Dr. Jessica Strong and Dr. James Toft.
