The Knowledge Translation Program is located on land now known as Tkaronto (Toronto). Tkaronto is the traditional territory of many groups, including the Mississaugas of the Credit and the Chippewa/ Ojibwe of the Anishnaabe Nations; the Haudenosaunee, and the Wendat. It is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge that Tkaronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit and The Dish with One Spoon treaty between the Anishinaabe, Mississaugas and Haudenosaunee that connected them to share the territory and protect the land. All Indigenous Nations and peoples, Europeans and newcomers, have been invited into this treaty in the spirit of peace, friendship and respect.

We would like to honour the Elders and Knowledge Keepers, both past and present, and are committed to continuing to learn and respect the history and culture of the communities that have come before and presently reside here.
We acknowledge the harms of the past and present, and we dedicate ourselves to work with and listen to First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities in the spirit of reconciliation and partnership.

We recognize and are grateful to have this opportunity to work on this land, and commit to caring for this land and continuously and actively working towards reconciliation. We recognize that Indigenous practices of health and well-being have been in place in this territory for over 10,000 years and are maintained to this day.
