We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani (“Pee-gunee”), and Kainai (“Gay-nah”) Nations; we also acknowledge the territory of Treaty Seven, which is also home to the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Stoney Nakoda First Nations of Bearspaw, Chiniki, and Wesley, and the Métis Nation, and all the people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta. We acknowledge all the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked these lands for centuries. We respect and affirm the inherent and treaty rights of Indigenous people, and we recognize the contributions of the Métis, Inuit, and all Indigenous peoples have and continue to make in shaping and strengthening our community and country.
