Thank you chair, John. The city of Hamilton is situated upon the traditional territory of the hearing, neutral, ural, lambda, Goudjusani and Mrs. August.
This line is covered by the dish with one spoon, one belt, covenant, which was an agreement between the Houdjusoni and the Anashitbach to share and care for the resources across the Great Lakes.
We further acknowledge that this line is covered by between the lakes, perches, 1792, between the crown and the Mrs. Salka of the Credit of the First Nation.
Today, the city of Hamilton is home to many indigenous people from across Turtle Island, North America.
And we recognize that we must do more to learn about the rich history of this line, so we can better understand our roles as residents, neighbors, partners and caretakers.
Hamilton believes service is privilege to serve, protect on lands that indigenous people have called home for thousands of years.
We recognize and respect the presence of stewardship of all indigenous people as keepers of this land.
We pledge to continue walking together with indigenous people in the building of more just society where the gifts of those of all people are nurture and honored.
