Description
Whose Land is a web-based app that uses GIS technology to assist users in identifying Indigenous Nations, territories, and Indigenous communities across Canada. The app can be used for learning about the territory your home or business is situated on, finding information for a land acknowledgement, and learning about the treaties and agreements signed across Canada.
Educational videos are available to watch that will give you a better understanding of why land acknowledgements are important, and the way Indigenous people view their relationship to land.
The Whose Land app is a collaboration between Canadian Roots Exchange, TakingITGlobal, and Bold Realities. The app consists of six different maps of Indigenous territories, Treaties, and First Nations, Inuit, and Metis communities.
Each community's location will eventually host a land acknowledgement video, and other information that the community would like to include on their page. The app will be used as an educational tool to create dialogue around reconciliation. It will be a starting point for conversation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous citizens across this country about land, territorial recognition and land acknowledgement.

Ratings and Reviews
Words can’t do this app enough justice
This is an amazing initiative and I think it will help foster learning and talking about reconciliation and Indigenous history. And it doesn’t just have the traditional territories of what is now called Canada, but also extends across the American continents and has territories for Australia and parts of the Pacific, too.
It’s great if you can find the right spot
It never gives the correct location. I’m in the Carolina’s. Whenever I say use my location, it gives me places in California?? But the information is very thorough and absolutely wonderful. I also tried the little google maps dude to drop on a location and it’s actually too precise. It’ll drop on a specific road when I’m just looking for a town. I’ll type the town into the search bar and get nothing it’s very confusing. But the information I do get is great!!
