In the spirit of reconciliation
This land is Treaty 4 Territory—the ancestral lands of the Cree, Saulteaux, Dakota, Lakota, Nakoda and homeland of the Métis. We acknowledge the harms of the past and are committed to moving forward in the spirit of reconciliation and gratitude—respecting and honouring the treaties that were made on all territories.
Economic Development Regina is advancing the Calls to Action to foster economic prosperity for all in the Greater Regina Area. We are committed to celebrating the culture, values, and language of Indigenous peoples to preserve the spirit and intent of Treaty 4.
Last week was one busy week for us as we took #regina over the pond to the UK! 🇬🇧🌾
As part of the delegation led by Trade and Export Development and hosted in London, our team attended two Ag/Food tech conferences, multiple trade meetings, and hosted delegations of our own.
Thank you to all the partners involved; EDR is very proud to be taking #regina to the world as the Heartbeat of the New Prairie Economy!
Stay tuned for more to come👀
