Land Acknowledgement

The Manitoba Writers’ Guild (MWG) acknowledges that we work, play and create on the ancestral lands of Anishinaabe, Nehethowuk, Oji-Cree, Anishininewuk, Dakota Oyate, and Denesuline peoples, and on the homeland of the Red River Métis. As a predominantly English-speaking organization, we acknowledge the hurts and harms caused by the language we operate in. We are committed to providing a safe environment where we can foster meaningful discussions on settler-colonialism, and together, learn about the efforts we can make on our end to forward truth and reconciliation through allyship and collaboration. Our Land Acknowledgement statement is not static; it is bound to adapt as we ourselves adapt and grow in our journey of understanding. We promise to be open to information shared us by our Indigenous relations.
