Through ongoing education (unlearning and relearning) on treaty 1 territory, I understand the privilege that I hold as a settler Canadian. I promise to
be an ally and a strong voice for action. Please ask me about what I am currently doing/learning so we can strengthen our commitment to truth and reconciliation together
