The retreat will be held on the traditional territory inhabited by the Chonnonton people before Europeans settled here. We acknowledge other First Nations neighbours including the Haudenosaunee, the Anishnaabe and The Métis nation. SoulPlay.ca seeks a new relationship with the Original Peoples of this land, and will weave honour and respect into the weekend retreat.
