We at South Riverdale Community Health Centre acknowledge that we work and live on Treaty 13 territory which was established between the Mississaugas of Credit River of the Anishinaabek Nation and the British Crown. We further acknowledge that we are surrounded by treaty 13a, treaty 20 also known as the Williams treaty and treaty 19.
We acknowledge the Wendat and Haudenosaunee people that also occupied this territory. This territory is the subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant. This covenant was created between the Haudenosaunee Confederacy and the Anishinaabek including allied nations to peaceably share and protect the resources around the Great Lakes.
South Riverdale Community Health Centre acknowledges that we are all treaty people. We shall honour and respect the past in order to move forward carrying the visions of our ancestors.
