Lansdowne acknowledges we are on the traditional treaty and unceded territory of the Original People including the Attawanderon, Anishnaabe, and Haudenosaunee that has long been home to the Six Nations of the Grand River and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.
We recognize their enduring connection as perpetual stewards of these lands protected by the “Dish with One Spoon” wampum agreement and the Haldimand Treaty, covering six miles either side of the Grand River along its length. In the spirit of these treaties, we seek to understand our place within history and build mindfulness of our present solidarity with Indigenous partners through relationships supporting families, so all children reach their potential.
