The National Trust for Canada acknowledges and respects the ancestral lands of Indigenous peoples, and their cultural and traditional relationships with the land and environment. We know that Canada’s history and heritage is complex and contentious, dominated by white settler perspectives, and that our work and the system we are a part of needs to change. We believe that diversity means inclusion and reflection of all people including cultures, languages and perspectives. Join us on our journey to understand Indigenous ways of being, do our part to support Reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, and find ways to serve more underrepresented communities in our work to protect and celebrate Canada’s diverse heritage places.
