Land Acknowledgement: As a small business owner in Tkaronto, I acknowledge that the land I am operating my business on is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. I also acknowledge that Tkaronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit.

I recognize the enduring presence, knowledge, and care of the Indigenous peoples and their ongoing relationship with this land, water, and community. This acknowledgement is not only a statement of respect or obligation, but also a reminder of my responsibility to learn from Indigenous teachings, support Indigenous sovereignty, and contribute to a future rooted in equity, justice, and reciprocity for Indigenous peoples.
