The Widow Badass

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I am extremely grateful that I get to live on the unceded traditional territory of Stz'uminus First Nation. I acknowledge the damage and injustice that has been done to First Nations Peoples by settlers and that still needs to be addressed and corrected. I promise to revere this land that I live, play and create on; to treat its resources with respect; and to support Indigenous business and cultural initiatives whenever and wherever possible.
