Land Acknowledgement
We acknowledge that our service region is located on lands that the Michi Saagiig Anishinaabeg inhabited for thousands of years prior to European colonization. These lands are the traditional and treaty territories of the Nations covered under the Williams Treaties, including the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation, Alderville First Nation, Hiawatha First Nation, Curve Lake First Nation, and the Chippewa Nations of Georgina Island, Beausoleil and Rama.
We embrace our journey to understanding our treaty relationships and the invaluable social, economic, cultural, and political contributions of Indigenous peoples to this Region. We honour, recognize, and respect Indigenous Peoples as rights holders and stewards of the lands and waters on which we have the privilege to live and work. We commit to learning from Indigenous values and knowledge, building opportunities for collaboration, and recognizing that we are all connected.
