I am a settler, residing on the stolen lands and territory of the Anishinabewaki, Haudenosaunee, Attiwonderonk and Mississauga of the Credit First Nation.  Acknowledgement of the land is a declaration of my individual – and our collective – responsibility to this place and its peoples’ histories, rights, and presence.

I support and add my voice to the collective “CALLS TO ACTION” from the Truth and Reconciliation Committee on Indian Residential Schools to never forget, to hold governments and colonial systems to account, to seek redress and healing for injustices. I commit to ongoing learning and to using my privilege to amplify Indigenous voices.
