The Pembina Institute acknowledges that the work we steward and those we serve is spans across many Nations. We respectfully acknowledge the space our organization is headquartered in, as the traditional and ancestral territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy, comprised of the bands Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai, the Îyârhe Nakoda Nations, including the bands of Goodstoney, Chiniki, and Bearspaw, and the Tsuut’ina Dené. These Lands are also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta — Region 3 whose Peoples have deep relationships with the Land.
These acknowledgements are some of the beginning steps on a journey of several generations. We share them in the spirit of truth, justice, reconciliation, and to contribute to a more equitable and inclusive future for all of society.
