BGC Canada respectfully acknowledges that its national team office is situated in Treaty 13 territory, the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is the home of many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.
