Creator, you made all people of every land. In the spirit of respect and truth, we honour the ancestral Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Kainai and Piikani Nations, the Stoney Nakoda, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw and Wesley Nations, and the Tsuu T'ina Nation. We acknowledge the Metis Nation of Alberta, Region Three.
In the spirit of reconciliation and because we are all treaty people, we also acknowledge all people who make their homes in the traditional Treaty 7 territory of southern Alberta.
