LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We acknowledge the land we are working on is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands.
This museum is dedicated to peace.
But there can be no peace without an acknowledgement of historical facts.
​
This museum is dedicated to the struggle for a world without war.
But there can be no absence of war without our knowing the suffering of the other.
​
This museum is dedicated to a better future for our children.
But this future cannot arrive without the dream and the labour of forgiveness.
​
This museum exists because of the joy that underlies the trust that goodness is inextinguishable and will triumph.
