land acknowledgement

The Association of Ston(e)y Lake Cottagers Inc. respectfully acknowledges that we are situated on the Treaty 20 Michi Saagiig territory and the traditional territory covered by the Williams Treaties First Nations which include: Alderville, Beausoleil, Curve Lake, Georgina Island, Hiawatha, Rama and Scugog Island First Nations.

This area has been, and continues to be home to First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples who recognize the importance of protecting land and water for the generations yet to come. We share in that recognition and will continue to take part in efforts to protect the environment where we all live, work, and play.  

As a community-based organization, we are on a journey towards truth and reconciliation and offer this acknowledgement as one step in that journey. We continue to engage in learning and understanding so that we can move forward in the spirit of respect and reciprocity.
