Land acknowledgment
We wish to acknowledge this land on which the Henry N.R. Jackman Faculty of Law operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land. We recognize the responsibilities we hold—as members of the legal community—to engage in the work of truth, justice, and reconciliation, including meaningful engagement with Indigenous laws and legal traditions.
World-class education
We enjoy an international reputation for research and teaching excellence. Widely published in books and the leading law journals, our Faculty are also regular recipients of prestigious prizes and fellowships that recognize their rigorous scholarship. Their commitment to scholarly work is complemented by their active engagement in current public policy issues.
