We recognize the complexity and privilege of gathering online by sharing a digital land acknowledgment written by Adrienne Wong:
Since our activities are shared digitally to the internet, let us take a moment to acknowledge the legacy of colonization embedded within the technologies, structures and ways of thinking we use every day.

We acknowledge the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Attiwonderonk, and Anishinabewaki and the Haudenosaunee.
