We would like to express gratitude for the land that we work and live on in Manitoba, Canada. We respectfully acknowledge that our work across Manitoba is carried out on the Treaty Territories and ancestral lands, including of the Anishinaabeg (Ojibwe), Anishininewuk (Oji-Cree), Dakota Oyate, Denesuline (Dene), Ininew (Cree), Inuit, Nehethowuk (Swampy Cree), and the Homeland of the Red River Métis.
In expressing our land acknowledgment, we commit to continuing to learn about Indigenous history and teachings and then to act, as best we can, from this learning.
