Land Acknowledgement
It is respectfully acknowledged that Rossburn & Area are on treaty 2 and 4 territory, the land and gathering place of the Anishinabeg long before settlers arrived. Consequently, the Rossburn & District Community Development Corporation acknowledges the harms of the past and present colonization. Accordingly, we commit to a meaningful partnership with our valued neighbors of Waywayseecappo (Waaweshicabo) First Nation in the spirit of truth and reconciliation.
Therefore, we encourage locals and visitors to the area to learn firsthand about the past and the experiences of the people through listening and talking directly to them. Additionally, Rossburn CDC recommends reading the book “Valley of the Birdtail” by Andrew Stobo Sniderman & Douglas Sanderson (Amo Binashii) telling local history.
