Cultivating Compassion 

Bringing awareness of the truth of our past in order to build bridges from the past to the present and subsequently our future.

​

A four module workshop to create awareness and understanding of Indigenous and Canadian history. Our goal is to cultivate a compassionate approach to being active in pathways to reconciliation and responsible decolonization as individuals, communities and businesses.

In the Spirit of the Truth, we acknowledge and recognize past and ongoing injustices. HBHL is committed to Reconciliation and healing with all Indigenous Peoples as we value accountability, dignity, collaboration, and continuous learning. HBHL recognizes the traditional territories, oral practices, and history of the Blackfoot Confederacy, Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika Nations. The Stoney Nakota Nations of Chiniki, Goodstoney/Wesley, and Bearspaw and The Tsuut’ina Nation of Treaty 7. We also acknowledge Métis Nation Region 3 and all who live, work and steward the Treaty 7 territories. As Treaty 7 Peoples we are all responsible for the continued health and honouring of these Sacred homelands.
