I acknowledge the Inuit, Eastern Cree and Naskapi (Innu) peoples, traditional custodians of Nunangat, Eeyou-Istchee and Nitassian (northern Québec). I acknowledge the Plains Cree people, traditional custodians of central Alberta. I acknowledge the Abenaki people, traditional custodians of Sherbrooke, Québec.
I acknowledge the Gunaikurnai, Bunurong and Boon Wurrung peoples, traditional custodians of Yiruk Wanoon (Wilsons Promontory, Australia).
I pay my respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging, and I extend that respect to all Indigenous peoples today.
