Land Acknowledgement

Toronto, Ontario

Able Industrial Trade Inc. o/a Aliant Resources (hereafter referred to as ‘Aliant Resources’) acknowledges that we are on the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. Aliant Resources also acknowledges that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 signed with the Mississaugas of the Credit and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands.

Ottawa, Ontario

We acknowledge the unceded traditional territory of the Algonquin Anishinabeg and the people of the Algonquin Anishinabeg Nation which encompasses the watershed of the Kitchissippi (Big River) now commonly known as the Ottawa River. The Algonquin Anishinabeg have been here in the watershed for thousands of years long before European contact and will continue to be here well into the future.

We recognize all Indigenous people in the region, from all Nations across Canada, who have also made Ottawa their home.

We acknowledge the traditional knowledge keepers, both young and old. And we honour their courageous leaders: past, present, and future.

We dedicate ourselves to moving forward in the spirit of partnership and Reconciliation.

Bancroft, Ontario

We acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, which is known by Indigenous Peoples as unceded.

We acknowledge that the Indigenous Peoples have been stewards of this land since time immemorial and as such, we treat the land, its plants, animals, stories and people with honour and respect. Today, this land is home to many Indigenous People from across Turtle Island, and we acknowledge the shared opportunity to live and work within this beautiful territory.

This recognition of the contribution and historic importance of Indigenous Peoples must also be clearly and overtly connected to our collective commitment to make the promise and the challenge of Truth and Reconciliation real in our communities, and in particular to bring justice for murdered and missing Indigenous women and girls across our county.
