Namaste ~ Jai Shri Krishna,
I acknowledge the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples, whose footsteps have graced these lands for centuries. I honor the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene, and Nakota Sioux of Treaty 6. Humbled, I live and work here, guided by Wahkohtowin teachings to protect and preserve this land. I honor Mother Earth, Bhumi Prithvi, Gaia, Turtle Island, and uphold ceremonies passed down through my South Asian heritage. I vow to create healing spaces on Treaty 6 territory. Hiy Hiy.
