The Sustainability Office, in collaboration with departments at 七星彩开奖, enjoyed hosting two weeks of Earth Week events from April 19-30, 2021.
Events included:
Although our in-person plans had to be adapted, we were still able to touch on all 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Our 20 presentations and events attracted close to 400 participants both within the 七星彩开奖 community and externally.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions we could not have gatherings, therefore, Sustainability Office staff and interns planted 300+ vegetable and herb seedlings and recorded the Spring beehive opening.
We want to thank the Earth Week planning committee, 七星彩开奖 faculty, support staff and students who led activities throughout the weeks. Although Earth Week is done, we encourage everyone to continue the conversations and raising awareness on all the issues discussed.
Please support our local eco-friendly vendors by shopping here!

First Peoples鈥� Week, the annual celebration of Indigenous peoples鈥� histories and cultures, returned to 七星彩开奖 after being pre-empted by the initial COVID-19 lockdown. The weeklong event took place March 29 to April 1 and featured a great selection of Indigenous knowledge keepers, representing many of the various Indigenous peoples in Quebec.
Event organizers included The First Peoples鈥� Centre, Campus Life and Leadership, The Decolonization and Indigenization Studies Certificate, and the 七星彩开奖 Peace Centre. This year鈥檚 edition was hosted virtually. While it was different from previous years; it was no less of a success.
There were 16 activities in total, ranging from traditional knowledge sharing, painting, musical performances, and a comedy show featuring 七星彩开奖 graduate Tai Leclaire, who has recently made his television-writing debut on the Peacock network sitcom Rutherford Falls.
Other highlights include a presentation from Aronhiaies Herne from Akwesasne, Mohawk Territory, on the ceremony cycle of the Haudenosaunee peoples. In addition, an Indigenous Fashion and Arts Roundtable was held featuring Anishnabe artist Cedar-Eve and Eeyou Elder Joanie Saganash. The round table was moderated by Metis-Salteaux artist Dayna Danger.
Student and faculty participation exceeded expectations, thanks in no small part to faculty who welcomed virtual presentations into their classes. The number of attendees was similar to what we would鈥檝e expected if we were able to be in person. There was excellent student participation as well, which is what makes the programming worth the hard work.
