Heritage Guelph

0:01Good afternoon, everyone. I'd like to call to order the March 6th, 2025 meeting of Heritage

0:06Guelph. Welcome to community members, staff, and invited guests who are attending this meeting.

0:11As we gather, let us take time to reflect on our privilege to live and work in Guelph,

0:16a city built over rich Indigenous histories. We are guests here and we need to reflect upon

0:21the responsibility to care for this land and the people who live here today and the generations

0:26If our actions today can move us towards reconciliation, we should take pause

0:31and make those decisions with intention and gratitude. This place we call Guelph has served

0:37as traditional lands in the place of refuge for many peoples over time,

0:41the more specifically the Adder-Aderong and the Honored Shona. This land is held as the

0:47treaty lands and territory with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. Guelph lies directly

0:53adjacent to the Halden and Trapped and is part of the long-established traditional hunting ground

0:58for the six nations of the Grand River. Many First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people have come

1:05across Turtle Island called Guelph home today. Community members, are there any disclosures

1:12of pecuniary interest? If so, please raise your hand right now. Okay, I am not seeing any,

1:21and I would like to share that I have received regrets from Chair Sarah Epp,

1:28and I believe Alex Crocker as well, and Winnie, I believe there is a couple other

1:41regrets. Yeah, excellent, David, we've joined us today. So yeah. Okay, okay, so thank you so much.
