Land Acknowledgement
We would like to acknowledge that the land we live, work, learn, and commune on is the original homelands of many tribal nations. We acknowledge the painful history of genocide and forced removal from this territory, and we honor and respect the many diverse Indigenous peoples still connected to this land on which we gather. To learn more about territory acknowledgement, visit native-land.ca.
