    I like when we have an elder do a welcome to country. It’s different and always pretty cool.

    Doing the acknowledgement before every meeting is basically tokenism at this point.

      This is very much my feeling. And if you’re going to do it every bloody time at least use the short form not the 6 paragraph version.

      Disclaimer I have a genetic but not cultural link here, so don’t often claim.

      Hundred percent. That feels like we’re honoring the indigenous communities.
