Many of the problems we encounter in our work with the justice system have direct roots in the long history of colonialism in North America. With that in mind, we acknowledge that our Saskatoon office is located in Treaty 6 territory – the traditional lands of the Cree, Saulteaux, Dene, Dakota, Lakota, Nakota, and Métis nations.
We hope that this recognition inspires you to look further into the treaty system and the long and vibrant history of traditional Indigenous lands. For our part, we consider how we can better treat each other and fulfill the spirit of the Treaty 6 agreement.
