Land Acknowledgement
Downtown Kitchener is situated on land that is the traditional home of the Neutral, Haudenosaunee (Ho-deh-no-show-nee) and Anishinaabe (Ah-nish-nah-bay) Peoples. We extend our respect to all First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples for their past and present contributions to this land. We also recognize and respect the cultural diversity that First Nations, Métis and Inuit people bring to both Downtown Kitchener and the City of Kitchener.
We recognize and appreciate their historic connection to this place and the contributions Indigenous peoples have made in shaping and strengthening this community.
For more information on Indigenous Reconciliation and the City of Kitchener, please visit the city’s website.
