We humbly acknowledge that we practice our services on the traditional territories of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Huron-Wendat peoples, including the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This includes T’karonto (colonially known as Toronto) as well as the lands now known as Woodbridge and Vaughan, and remains home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. We know that acknowledgement alone is not enough, and we commit to continuing to learn and act in ways that support Truth and Reconciliation.

We support and stand in solidarity with Black communities seeking freedom and reparative justice in light of the ongoing impact of slavery in Canada. We acknowledge that not everyone came to these lands voluntarily, that many were brought here forcefully through the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. Our team aims to confront and dismantle anti-Black racism and pay tribute to those ancestors of African origin and descent.
