We acknowledge and share gratitude for being able to come together on Treaty 2 land, traditional homelands of Dakota, Anishinaabe, Oji-Cree, Cree, Dene and the Métis people. It is our hope to work with people that have a traditional connection to this land to ensure the work we do is done in a Good Way.
