In the spirit of respect, reciprocity and truth, I honor and acknowledge Moh'kinsstis, and the traditional Treaty 7 territory and oral practices of the Blackfoot confederacy: Siksika, Kainai, Piikani, as well as the Îyâxe Nakoda and Tsuut'ina nations. I acknowledge that this territory is home to the Mêtis Nation of Alberta, Region 3 within the historical Northwest Mêtis homeland. Finally, I acknowledge all Nations - Indigenous and non - who live, work and play on this land, and who honour and celebrate this territory.
