What you would bring in their backpack if you were heading on a TREC (trek)? 


If I were heading on a TREC (trek), I would definitely bring a portable speaker because music is a huge part of my life, and I’d want to make the journey even more fun. I’d also bring a camera to take pictures, so we can all look back on the great moments and beautiful places we’ve seen!

We are thankful for the ability to live, work, and gather on this Land.

The TREC Lab recognizes we are gathered in an institution with a colonial history, and colonial present, and we aim to continually lessen ongoing colonial harms. We make this statement as an affirmation we are committed to improving our profession’s practices.

The members of the TREC Lab both acknowledge and pay tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6). The city of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina.
