The Louis Riel School Division (LRSD) brings 
together a community of schools on the 
traditional land of the Anishinaabeg, Ininewak, 
and Dakota. Our division is located on the 
National Homeland of the Red River Métis. 
We recognize that Manitoba is also the 
traditional land of the Anishininiwak and Dene.
LAND   
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We respect the treaties made on this land and 
acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and 
present. We dedicate ourselves to authentic alliances 
with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation 
and cooperation.   
We recognize and honour Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, 
the source of Winnipeg’s life-sustaining drinking water, 
as well as the Treaty Territories that generate and provide 
the electricity that powers daily activity throughout the 
province and beyond.
The ongoing development of LRSD's land 
acknowledgement is guided by our Indigenous Council 
of Grandparents, and we thank them for their generosity 
and collaboration.
