Territory Acknowledgement:
Mosaic is located on Treaty One Territory, the original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, and Dene peoples, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. Our water is sourced from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation in Treaty Three Territory and our hydroelectricity comes primarily from Treaty Five Territory. Mosaic respects the Treaties signed on these territories. We recognize that they are lifelong, enduring relationships and we are dedicated to upholding their spirit and intent. We acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and present and we commit to moving forward in partnership with Indigenous communities through allyship and collaboration.
