The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern

Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional
territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot
Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai
First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda
(including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The
City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta Region
3.

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where

the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as
Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda,
and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we
strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a
good way.”
