Traditional Land Acknowledgment The City of Oshawa is situated on lands within the traditional and treaty territory of the Michi Saagiig and Chippewa Anishinaabeg and the signatories of the Williams Treaties, which include the Mississaugas of Scugog Island, Curve Lake, Hiawatha and Alderville First Nations, and the Chippewas of Georgina Island, Rama and Beausoleil First Nations. We are grateful for the Anishinaabeg who have cared for the land and waters within this territory since time immemorial. We recognize that Oshawa is steeped in rich Indigenous history and is now present day home to many First Nations, Inuit and Métis people. We express gratitude for this diverse group of Indigenous Peoples who continue to care for the land and shape and strengthen our community. As a municipality, we are committed to understanding the truth of our shared history, acknowledging our role in addressing the negative impacts that colonization continues to have on Indigenous Peoples, developing reciprocal relationships, and taking meaningful action toward reconciliation. We are all Treaty people.Additional Agenda Items NoneDeclarations of Pecuniary Interest Robert Bell - HTG-24 -30 - Albert Street Bridge and Farewell Street Multi-Use Bridge Working Group Report - May 2024 Robert Bell declared a conflict of pecuniary interest concerning Report HTG-24-30 regarding Albert Street Bridge and Farewell Street Multi-Use Bridge Working Group Report - May 2024 as he owns stocks within the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Rail Network and did not take part in discussion or voting on the matter.Presentations Engineering Services - Stevenson Road North Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Study - Second Update Pidenam Bodjona, Transportation Engineer, provided a presentation concerning the Stevenson Road North Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Study - Second Update.
