Land Acknowledgement
Oakville is deeply rooted in the history and contemporary traditions of numerous First Nations. From the ancestral lands of the Anishinaabe to the territories of the Attawandaron and Haudenosaunee, these lands bordering the Great Lakes hold a profound First Nations legacy. Our Centre comes together on the sacred grounds encompassed by Treaties 14 and 22, we stand in unity with our Indigenous brothers and sisters to express reverence and appreciation for Mother Earth and the original stewards of this land.
The Town of Oakville rests upon the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. In recognition and gratitude, we express our thanks to the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Treaty holders, for their stewardship of this traditional territory.
