I live in Durham Region and with gratitude would like to acknowledge the traditional lands on which I am a settler: the Michi Saagiig Anishinaabeg and the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation, Alderville First Nation, Hiawatha First Nation, Curve Lake First Nation, and the Chippewa Nations of Georgina Island, Beausoleil and Rama.

I also share time in Tkaronto (Toronto) and acknowledge the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples. I honor their rights and work towards reconciliation and stronger relationships with Indigenous communities
