Honouring Canada's Indigenous Peoples
As a third-generation settler in Canada, I am committed to continually learning and supporting Indigenous peoples throughout the country. The On Canada Project has been instrumental in guiding these efforts, offering actionable steps for acknowledging and taking responsibility in the reconciliation process. Here is my list of commitments:
My Commitments to Indigenous Allyship
- Continuous Learning: I commit to deepening my understanding of the peoples and the history of the land I live on. This included completing the Indigenous Canada course offered by the University of Alberta.
- Acknowledging Presence: I will incorporate a personalized land acknowledgment into my daily communications to highlight and respect the privilege of living on Indigenous land.
