Indigenous peoples have continuously maintained homelands in northern Manitoba since time immemorial. The First Nations in the area that UCN serves entered into treaty relationships with the Crown (within our region these include signatories to treaties 4, 5 -- and the treaty 5 adhesion, and treaty 6 - located within the treaty 5 adhesion). The territory has also become home to other Indigenous peoples. We uphold the treaties and collaborate with all Indigenous peoples to share truth, reconciliation, and learning. COMPETITION TYPE: Open Competition to PublicCOMPETITION NUMBER: 26-125CLOSING DATE: November 10, 2026SALARY RANGE: $35.71 to $54.36 per hour plus remoteness allowance if applicablePOSITION CLASSIFICATION: College InstructorPOSITION LOCATION: The Pas, ManitobaPOSITION TYPE: Casual Position
