Land Acknowledgment
At Conestoga College, we would like to acknowledge that in Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, and Brantford, we are located on the Haldimand Tract, the land promised to the Haudenosaunee people of Six Nations, which includes six miles on either side of the Grand River. This is the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Neutral peoples. Recognizing the land is an expression of gratitude and appreciation to those whose environment we reside in and a way of honouring the Indigenous people living and working on the ground for thousands of years.
Author Acknowledgments
I would like to thank the team at Conestoga College for their commitment to open educational resources (OER), especially Amy Gleiser and Kim Carter for their leadership and support on this project and for giving me the opportunity to be part of it. I also would like to thank Kiranjot for being the lead and facilitating the process, Sami and Kenrick for their contribution and support, and Rachel from Open Learning for making it happen. It was great working with all of you. Special thanks to my husband, Ahmad Noor, my kids, Mary & Allen, for their unconditional support and my furry friend Sherlock, who is always by my side.
