Jessica is grateful to have the privilege to work on this land. She calls for the reconciliation of current injustices as well as those that have been carried out against Indigenous communities which include but are not limited to broken treaty relationships. 

Jessica encourages you to learn more about the traditional territories of the Indigenous Peoples where you live, work, and play using tools like native-land.ca.
