Join Indigenous educator, Darin Wybenga, Traditional Knowledge and Land Use Coordinator for the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation (MCFN), to learn about the lands around us and the treaties that govern their use. At the end of the 17th century, MCFN Ancestors arrived at the western end of Lake Ontario. They occupied, controlled and stewarded over 4,000,000 acres of land, including the lands occupied by the present-day City of Burlington. Learn about the history of this land and how we can uphold treaties to ensure it is respected and protected for years to come. In-person. Register online at www.bpl.on.ca.
