Shift acknowledges that we operate on the traditional territories of Indigenous Peoples across Turtle Island, on land known today as Canada. We are grateful to Indigenous Peoples for their stewardship of these lands. We recognize that Canada and Canadians have not fulfilled their treaty obligations, and that Indigenous rights have been and continue to be violated. We are committed to upholding Indigenous rights through Shift’s work, and we are committed to listening, learning and working to decolonize our efforts.
