Council Meeting Agenda - September 07, 2022
The Township of Oro-Medonte acknowledges that we are situated on the
traditional land of the Anishnaabek (A- nish- in- aa- beh) people, and
ancestral territory of the Huron-Wendat. The Anishnaabek include the Odawa
[Oh-DAH-wah], Ojibwe [O-jib-we] and Pottawatomi [boh-tah-WAH-toh-mee]
nations, collectively known as the Three Fires Confederacy. It continues
today as the home for diverse Indigenous Peoples including the historic
Metis Community in Penetanguishene.
The Anishnaabek people continue to have an enduring relationship with this
land, specifically the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, the Chippewa Tri-
Council and the Williams Treaties First Nations. The Huron-Wendat Nation
also continues to pay respect and protect their ancestors and heritage on this
land. We honour the Indigenous history and culture that has thrived for
millennia in this territory and the Treaties that bind us together as partners in
the spirit of a shared sustainable and prosperous future. We are all Treaty
People. Our commitment begins with acknowledging the Truth so that we
can move forward together towards Reconciliation.
