Land Acknowledgement

Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority is charged by the Crown with the management of natural hazards and resource management in the watersheds of the Mississippi and Carp rivers and an area draining to the Ottawa River. 

MVCA’s jurisdiction includes land subject to treaties with Indigenous peoples:  Treaty 27, the Williams Treaty, and the Crawford purchases of 1783.   Our jurisdiction is also the traditional and unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabeg people.

We offer our gratitude to the first peoples for their care of and teachings about our earth and our relations.  As we move together along the path of reconciliation, may we learn and once again honour those teachings and bring them into the work that we do at MVCA.
