​

The Toronto—St. Paul's Green Parties acknowledge that the land in Toronto—St. Paul's is the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee, the Métis, and most recently, the territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit River. The territory was the subject of the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement
between the Iroquois Confederacy and the Ojibwe and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. This territory is also covered by the Upper Canada Treaties.

Today, Toronto (from the Haudenosaunee word Tkaronto) is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work in the community, on this territorial land. We want to acknowledge that colonial violence continues to negatively impact Indigenous Peoples. We recognize that the institutions in which we gather have colonial history and colonial present, and we aim to continually stand in solidarity with Indigenous peoples, towards lessening ongoing colonial harms through speaking about these harms.
