I am honoured to live and work in Treaty 7 territory, home of the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Piikani, Siksika, and Kainai Nations), as well as the Stony Nakoda and Tsuut’ina Nations, and Métis Region 3. I acknowledge all the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples who have chosen to make southern Alberta their home.
