Claudia Bustos's Company Details
When you visit Fort Calgary, you stand on the traditional territory of the Niitsitapi of the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai Nations; the Îyârhe (Stoney) Nakoda of the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley Nations; and the Dene of the Tsuut'ina Nation. Southern Alberta is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3.This is also where the North West Mounted Police arrived in 1875 and built the Fort which became the foundation for the city of Calgary. In just under 150 years, Calgary grew from tiny outpost to a city of over 1.25 million people. Fort Calgary is located where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. This site has long been called Mohkinsstsis by the Blackfoot, as well as Wîchîspa by the Nakoda, and Guts'ists'i by Tsuut'ina.Here, we take time to reflect on our past, understand our present, and create our future.
