Acknowledgement

In the spirit of truth and reconciliation, we honour and acknowledge that we live, work, and play on Treaty 7 lands – the traditional territories of the Iyârhe Nakoda Nations (Chiniki, Bearspaw, Goodstoney), the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina Nation, the Ktunaxa, Secwépemc, Dene, Mountain Cree and Métis Nation of Alberta District 4 within the Battle River Territory.

We are grateful to those whose territory we reside on and acknowledge the many First Nations and Métis who have lived and cared for these lands for generations.
