Travel Alberta honours and acknowledges the traditional territories of the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit in Alberta. Alberta is situated within historical and present-day lands that Indigenous Peoples have cared for and lived on for generations. We honour the territories of Treaty 4, 6, 7, 8, 10 and their signatories. We also acknowledge the homelands of the Otipemisiwak Métis Government, including the eight Métis Settlements and the 22 Métis Districts. We acknowledge the many Indigenous Peoples living in urban areas throughout the province. We appreciate that modern borders do not align with traditional land use, and we honour the neighbouring Indigenous communities outside of Alberta who have travelled and inhabited this land throughout history.<!--]--><!--]--><!----><!--]--><!----><!----></p><!--]--><!----><!--]--><!--]--><!--]--></div><!--]--> <!--[--><ul class="list-unstyled m-0 d-block d-md-none"><!--[--><li><!--[!--><a
