Land Acknowledgement

"The Municipality of Port Hope exists on the lands of the Michi Saagiig Anishnaabeg traditional territory covered by the Williams Treaties. We honour and recognize First Peoples as rights holders and stewards of the lands and waters on which we have the privilege to live, work, and play, including the Ganaraska Forest and River. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.

We commit to actions towards Truth and Reconciliation by recognizing the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, strengthening ties with First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples - especially those who make their home in Port Hope, and learning from Indigenous ways of knowing and being. We do so by recognizing the past and working towards a shared future."
