Land Acknowledgement

The Gamma Ray Spectroscopy at ISAC team acknowledges that our work spans many Territories and Treaty areas and we are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are with us today, those who have gone before us and the youth that inspire us. As an act of Reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we visit, reside and work on, and as recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (TRC) 94 Calls to Action, we recognize the land and the benefits it provides all of us.
