NWOCC acknowledges that we live and practice on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabeg (Ojibway) people and Métis Nation. As settlers, we say Miigwech for allowing us to gather here. It is an honour and privilege to do this work on Treaty #3, and we remain committed to practicing with respect, learning, and honouring Indigenous cultures, people, and relationships.
