Personal Land Acknowledgment
I’d first like to acknowledge that I am on Treaty 4 territory, this is the homeland of the Metis Nation, land of the Cree, Saulteaux, Dakota, Lakota, Nakota, and Anishinabek peoples. In the spirit of reconciliation and respect, I want to honour those who have come before us, their sacrifice and traumatic history will never be forgotten. I hereby recognize the cultural traditions, spiritual value, and importance of Indigenous people on this land that we all share. May we all be the caretakers of this land.
We are all treaty people!
