Welcome to our new Board members!

Volunteer Coordinator April 1, 2022

At the AGM on March 30th four members were elected to join our Board of Directors: Odesia Howlett, Brittany Lee, Ariel Oleynikov and Jasper Smith. They will be joining Paul Costello, Rachel Vear, Laura Wilson and Miriam Kearney, who are halfway through their two-year terms.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the AGM and voted in the election!

OPIRG Guelph is located on the ancestral lands of the Attawandaron/Chonnonton, the Anishinaabe, and Haudenosaunee peoples and the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We recognize the significance of the Dish with One Spoon Covenant to this land and offer our respect and gratitude to all of the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island who have stewarded, loved & defended this land for centuries.

In stating this, we acknowledge that we are here as a result of blood that has been shed through colonization, which continues to be the lived experience of Indigenous communities across Turtle Island. Colonialism is a current ongoing process, and we need to be accountable for our present participation in that process.
