Land Acknowledgement
In the spirit of respect, reciprocity and truth, we honour and acknowledge Moh’kinsstis, and the traditional Treaty 7 territory and oral practices of the Blackfoot confederacy: Siksika, Kainai, Piikani, îethka Nakoda Nations: Chiniki, Bearspaw, Goodstoney and Tsuut’ina Nation. We acknowledge that this territory is home to the Otipemisiwak Métis Government of the Métis Nation within Alberta Districts 5 and 6.
As library and information professionals, it is important that we honour, respect, and cherish the knowledge shared with our community by the Indigenous peoples we share this land with. We must strive to engage and hold space for the voices of those we have lost, and those who speak for them now. This sacred gathering place provides us with an opportunity to engage with and demonstrate leadership in reconciliation, and we thank you for your enthusiasm and commitment to join our team on the lands of Treaty 7 territory.
