Land Acknoledgment
The Rhoda Foundation acknowledges that it's present and operating on the unceded, unsurrendered territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation whose presence here in Ottawa reaches back to time immemorial. We further recognize the enduring presence of all First Nations, Métis, the Inuit peoples, and all Indigenous peoples around the world, especially in Palestine.
