What is the Global Foundation?
INDIGENOUS RECOGNITION: GFoundation is situated in amiskwaciy (Beaver Hills) in Treaty No. 6. We acknowledge and respect that these lands are the traditional and ancestral territories of the Nêhiyawak (Plains Cree), Nakota (Sioux), Niitsitapi (Blackfoot), Nahkawininiwak (Saulteaux Anishnaabe-Ojibwe), and Otipemisiwak (Metis) nations. GFoundation honours the spirit and intent of the Treaty’s indigenous rights and supports its full implementation. We also, acknowledge and honour that we are Treaty people and have obligations to live in a good and trusting relationship with the first stewards of these lands. We commit ourselves to understanding the generational impact of historical injustices on Indigenous peoples and will make every effort toward reconciliation and maintaining good relations.
