Annual Reports — Immigrant Migrant Women's Association of Halifax (IMWAH)

Land Acknowledgment

IMWAH acknowledges that our work takes place in Mi'kma'ki, the traditional and unceded territory of the Mi'kmaq people. This territory is covered by the "Treaties of Peace and Friendship" which Mi'kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) People first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi'kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. IMWAH is grateful to the L’nu for their knowledge and deep connection with this land that continue to guide IMWAH forward.
