Celebrating Indigenous Leadership

Carolinian Canada celebrates Indigenous leadership, honouring the diverse histories and contributions of Indigenous Peoples. Our staff have created a living collection of resources to help you:

  • Learn about whose land you are on
  • Support Indigenous businesses and groups
  • Listen to Indigenous voices
  • Connect with Indigenous-led news sources
  • Show Up to support Indigenous-led events

Our team is fortunate to collaborate with a wide network of passionate Indigenous leaders who contribute to building resilient communities. We strive to support Indigenous leadership and foster an understanding and appreciation of the intricate connection between people and the land.

With these resources, we recommit ourselves to these principles, inviting everyone to connect, learn, and grow with us. We believe in a future where communities thrive in healthy, resilient landscapes, fostered by ethical spaces. We encourage you to explore these resources, support Indigenous-led businesses, groups, and initiatives, and attend Indigenous-led events in your own community.

We live on the traditional territories of many nations including the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee, the Lunaapeew, the Wendat and the Mississauga. We acknowledge the inherent and treaty rights of the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island including the many diverse First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples who live here now. We commit to the teachings of the Two Row Wampum and the One Dish One Spoon Wampum; and our duty to reconcile, learn more and create safe spaces for Indigenous and non-Indigenous perspectives to meet and discuss the issues that matter to everyone.
