The National Anthem of Clarenton is a great place for the land. The National Anthem of Clarenton is a great place for the land. And, Councillor Wu, if you would lead us in the moment of reflection, please. May we cherish and protect the freedom and peace that we enjoy in Clarenton. May we be mindful of the cost of freedom and peace. May our deliberations be respectful and may our decisions be informed and wise. May our work be focused on and lead us towards the better ment of our communities. Thank you. Thank you, Councillor. I'll look around the table. Do we have any declarations of interest?

All righty folks, we will call this special council meeting to order. The meeting is dealing with one item, that is PDS-048-26, the authorization to execute the CPKC and Metrolinx agreements. So with that, Councillor Rang, I believe you've got the land acknowledgement statement. Thank you, Chair. We have been encouraged to make these land acknowledgement statements our own and to provide some personal context around them, so I'll try to do that as quickly as I can before I read it. When I was a university student and working in summer jobs in Dunville, Ontario, I was a roofer for one summer and I worked with a fellow by the name of Tom, who was a Mohawk. And at around that time, the Oka crisis was going on in Quebec. And sitting on a roof with Tom one day, I, you know, in my infinite wisdom, having watched the news and read the news, gave some opinions about the O ka crisis. And Tom, to his credit, was really patient with me and walked me through the way that he saw it. And walked me through a lot of history that I hadn't known. And I came away from that conversation very changed in my opinions and much more willing to be curious and to ask questions. So as I read this land acknowledgement statement, my advice to folks is to be curious and to ask questions and to seek out those who have an opinion that may be different than yours, who have an experience that is different from yours. The Municipality of Clarington is situated within the traditional and treaty territory of the …
