Supporting The Indigenous Community
The Fabric Snob operates facilities on Treaty 1 and Treaty 2 lands - the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene Peoples, and on the homeland of the Métis Nation. We feel it is important to acknowledge the history, land and people of these areas. True reconciliation must extend beyond empathy, raise awareness of social injustice and embrace lasting and meaningful change. Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Transgender and Two-Spirit people, residential school abuse, systemic discrimination and violation of human and Treaty rights are matters that must be acknowledged and addressed. We strive everyday to better understand these issues, educate ourselves and be an active participant in meaningful reconciliation.
