The City of Toronto, where Lifemark Head Office is located, is on the traditional territory of many Indigenous nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples—nations who called this land home long before the arrival of settlers and who still call it home. By offering this land acknowledgement, we remind ourselves that we live in a land of great diversity and that we are all accountable for our relationships with all who live here.
