Kopit – Translates to Beaver in Mi’kmaq language.
In many Indigenous traditions, the beaver is often depicted in Indigenous stories and art. Beavers are said to represent a variety of qualities, including hard work. Beavers are known for being industrious and productive, and for working hard until the job is done.
LIUNA Local 900 embraces the beaver’s symbolism to represent the hard work and dedication of all LIUNA members, Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike.
Mahsus – translates to fiddleheads in Peskotomuhkati language.
Fiddleheads grow widely across the northern hemisphere but are most abundant in New Brunswick.
The Wolastoqey, Mi’kmaq, and Peskotomuhkatikuk peoples in New Brunswick & Prince Edward Island historically and currently harvest the ferns as a traditional food.
