Land Acknowledgment
The Jasper Municipal Library recognizes with respect, gratitude, and accountability that we are on Treaty 6 and 8 Territories as well as the Jasper House Métis District.
The land on which we stand, here in the Athabasca Valley, is a part of the shared Traditional Territory for the Dane-zaa, Aseniwuche Winewak As’in’î’wa’chî Ni’yaw, Nêhiyawak, Anishinaabe, Secwépemc, Stoney Nakoda, Mountain Métis and Métis.
We honour the Indigenous Peoples whose histories, languages, and cultures have marked these mountain lands and headwaters for centuries.
We are all privileged to share in this special place, and we take this opportunity to remind ourselves of our responsibilities and obligations to Indigenous peoples and to the land itself. We reaffirm our commitment to learning and practising reconciliation and we celebrate our collective strengths and future.
