Land Acknowledgement
Limestone Counselling Coaching & Consulting is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the shared traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee, Anishnaabe and Neutral peoples. This land is part of the Dish with One Spoon Treaty between the Haudenosaunee and Anishnaabe peoples and symbolizes the agreement to share and protect resources and to refrain from engaging in conflict. From the Haldimand Proclamation of Oct. 25, 1784, this territory is described as: “six miles deep from each side of the river (Grand River) beginning at Lake Erie and extending in the proportion to the head of said river, which them and their posterity are to enjoy forever.” We acknowledge that we are settlers of this land and respect the enduring presence, deep traditional knowledge, laws and world views of the Indigenous peoples of this land. We accept our responsibility to continue our education and our collective commitment to taking actions towards Truth and Reconciliation including our responsibility to ensure our children are educated on the true history of Canada.
