As an organization with Montreal reach, we recognize our work occurs on traditional Indigenous territories. We live, work, and play on the traditional land and unceded territory of the Kanienʼkehá:ka (Mohawk) people, custodians of the land and waters. This is meant to express deep respect for Indigenous peoples and to advocate for changes to systemic racism. There is more work to do. We encourage you to learn more about the nations, land, and communities in the areas where you live. Read full statement.
