I respectfully acknowledge that we are located in amiskwaciy-wâskahikan (a-Misk-wachee-wa-Sky-gan) on Treaty 6 and Treaty 8 Territories, a traditional gathering place for diverse indigenous peoples including the Nehiyawak (neh-Hee-o-wuk), Niitsitapi (Nee-IT-sit-tappy), Métis, Nakota Sioux (Sue), Haudenosaunee (hoh-DEE-noh-SHoh-nee), Dene (De-nay), Ojibway (O-jib waY)/Saulteaux (SOH-toh)/Anishinaabe (An-ish-in-aabe), Inuit and many others whose histories, languages, and cultures continue to influence our vibrant community. Recognizing the land on which we live and work is a starting point in understanding and respecting the Indigenous communities that have been here since time immemorial.

With Gratitude from Uncanny Valley
