Burlington, Ontario sits on the stolen lands of the Ho-de-no-sau-nee-ga (Haudenosaunee), Attiwonderonk, Mississauga, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, and Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ. These lands spanning from Lake Ontario to the Niagara Escarpment are steeped in Indigenous history and traditions.


​The territory is mutually covered by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy, the Ojibway and other allied Nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.

We would like to acknowledge that the land on which we gather is part the Treaty 3 3/4 (1795)/ Brant Tract Treaty 8 (1797).
