My office is located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininewuk, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate and Denesuline, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. I respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, I acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and present, and I dedicate myself to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of Reconciliation and collaboration.
