University of Saskatchewan President Ilene Busch-Vishniac accepted the Treaty 6 flag from Onion Lake First Nation Chief Wallace Fox at a formal ceremony held March 12. The flag was developed by the Onion Lake First Nation to signify the ongoing Treaty 6 relationship between First Nations and non-First Nations. The ceremony honoured the existing relationship between the U of S and First Nations in the Treaty 6 territory, and committed to continue to work together for widespread education on Aboriginal issues.
