We begin by acknowledging that though we are meeting virtually, we are all on land that has been inhabited by Indigenous people for thousands of years.
We acknowledge that the Special Olympics Ontario Huronia community is located on/in the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee, Anishnabewaki, Mississauga and Wendake-NionwentsĂŻo peoples. This territory is covered by Treaty 16 of 1815.
Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work, live and play on this land.
