The Calgary area, where the Bow and Elbow rivers meet, is a place of confluence where the sharing of ideas and opportunities naturally come together. Indigenous peoples have their own names for this area that have been in use long before settlers named this place Calgary. In the Blackfoot language, it is called Moh-kins-tsis. The Îethka Nakoda Wîcastabi First Nations refer to this place as Wicispa Oyade and the people of the Tsuut’ina nation call it Guts-ists-I. The Métis call the Calgary area Otos-kwunee.
 

We appreciate and acknowledge that Calgary is on the ancestral and traditional territory of the Blackfoot Nations who include: the Siksika, Piikani, Amskaapipiikani and Kainai First Nations; the Îethka Nakoda Wîcastabi First Nations, comprised of the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations; and the Tsuut’ina First Nation. Calgary is also homeland to the Métis - the Otipemisiwak - and includes the Nose Hill Métis District and the Elbow Métis District, within the Battle River Territory.


We thank all Indigenous people for accommodating and hosting visitors, for continuing to welcome guests and share the history.
