At the Alberta Mortgage Brokers Association, we acknowledge that our work in the housing industry is deeply connected to the land we call home. We recognize and pay tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaties 4, 6, 7, 8 and 10.  We also honour the Métis Nation of Alberta.  As we work to facilitate homeownership in Alberta, we remember that we operate on land that has been home to Indigenous peoples for generations.
