Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional territories of the Treaty 7 Nations: the Siksika (Blackfoot), Kainai (Blood), Piikani (Peigan), Tsuut’ina, and the Stoney Nakoda Nations—Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney. This land is also part of the historic Northwest Métis Homeland, including Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3.

We recognize that these lands have been home to Indigenous Peoples long before the signing of Treaty 7 in 1877 and long before Alberta became a province in 1905. These treaties were intended as agreements of mutual respect and shared responsibility, though the impacts of colonialism have fractured these relationships.

As part of our ongoing reconciliation efforts, we commit to continually learning about the histories, rights, and contributions of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples. We honour the resilience of Indigenous communities and acknowledge our responsibility to engage thoughtfully with the lands and the stories we are privileged to share.
