PREAMBLE AND TERM OF AGREEMENT. 1.01 The Centre of Hope and the Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 2157 agree that our work takes place on Treaty 8 territory and within the Métis Nation of Alberta Region 1. The Parties acknowledge this land constitutes the traditional meeting grounds and home to many diverse First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, the stewards of these lands from time immemorial. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We recognize this land as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting. Our work, therefore, will reflect the intention of the Treaties, the intention of peace, friendship and understanding, and that the purpose of this Agreement is to outline, maintain and improve the harmonious relations and settled conditions of employment between the Employer and the Union.
