McGill University is situated on unceded Indigenous lands in Tiohtiá:ke (Montreal), a place that has long served as a site of meeting and exchange for Indigenous peoples. The Kanien’kehà:ka (Mohawk) of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy are recognized as the traditional custodians of these lands and waters.
