"I am honoured to represent my Nation and 尤物视频 to work alongside respected Indigenous leaders across Canada to enact the necessary decolonizing changes to SSHRC's mandate and implementation of the interagency strategic plan, to support our self-determination goals in Indigenous research and policy development. My hands are held high to the incredible Indigenous trailblazers who have supported the development of the Indigenous Leadership Circle in Research."
