This research was carried out in Treaty 6 Territory, a traditional gathering place for diverse Indigenous peoples including the Cree, Niitsitapi, Metis, Nakota Sioux, Iroquois, Dene, Ojibway/ Saulteaux/Anishinaabe, Inuit, and many others. Indigenous histories, languages, and cultures were the first to occupy this place, and we respect these nations as continued stewards of this land and water. We also recognize that colonization is an ongoing process that continues today. It is in the spirit of our peace and friendship treaty that this project promotes equitable collaboration between peoples that is mutually beneficial. We are all treaty people.
