Acknowledgment of Indigenous Lands, Treaties, and Peoples
The Red Deer Housing Authority acknowledges the ancestral and traditional Indigenous territories of Treaty 6 and Treaty 7 Nations and the historic gathering site of the Métis people. It is on these territories that we strive to work together to build a safe, welcoming and inclusive community.
We are grateful for the knowledge keepers, elders and stewards of the land who are with us, as well as those who have gone before. We acknowledge the achievements and contributions of the Indigenous and Métis communities, and we recognize the land as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those on whose territory we reside.
