June is National Indigenous History Month, and as we recognize and embrace the unique cultures, traditions and experiences of First Nations, Inuit and Métis, we celebrate their contributions to this nation.

We move forward, honoured to live on this shared land, rich in history, distinguished by stories, achievements, and the resilience of Indigenous Peoples, vowing to continue learning and growing.

Your Students' Council Representatives, Dan and Alex, joined Edmonton's Mayor Andrew Knack earlier this month for a roundtable.

This was an opportunity to ask questions, network with Students' Council Reps from other institutions and learn more about the efforts that the municipal government is working towards in terms of student housing, affordable living and public transit safety.

Questions about the current state of International student visas and financial shortages specific to NorQuest College due to a decrease in International students were also brought to the table.

Your Students' Council Reps continue to be part of the conversation, addressing concerns of students and putting their best interests at the forefront.
