Solar Energy Transition with Six Nations of the Grand River
Thank you to Matt Jamieson and the Six Nations Development Corporation for welcoming us to their community and speaking to their experience in solar energy and the opportunities that lie within. Learn more about Matt and the Six Nations Development Corporation including ongoing and past projects, benefits of investing in solar energy and your community, and advice from Matt regarding involving and elevating your community through development. Thank you to Indigenous Clean Energy for partnering on this video series.
This video was filmed on location in Six Nations of the Grand River. We would like to acknowledge that the land on which we gathered is situated upon traditional territories of the Neutral, Huron - Wyandot, the Haudenosaunee, and later some of the Anishinaabe Nations from the north. These lands are the 1701 Treaty Lands of the Six Nations referred to as their Beaver Hunting Grounds. The territory is also covered by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Haudenosaunee, Iroquois Confederacy, the Anishinaabe and other allied Nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes, and a portion of this land is further subject to the 1784 Haldimand Treaty. Today, this remains the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to work in their community, and to share and respect Mother Earth.
