African Canadian Women and Youth Alliance recognize and honour the ancestral and unceded territories of the Indigenous peoples of this land. This province is home to many, including the Anishinabek, Haudenosaunee, Huron-Wendat, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Métis and others. We honour and respect their enduring presence, resilience, and contributions to the cultural fabric of this province. We also recognize the ongoing impacts of colonialism and commit to work in a respectful partnership with the indigenous peoples to promote reconciliation and the strengthening of relationships with Indigenous communities. We are indeed grateful to live, work and gather on these lands.
