Through a spatial critique of the practice of Land Acknowledgments, this examination traces its origins in indigenous traditions and its subsequent adoption by modern settlers. My thesis highlights the limitations of current Land Acknowledgment practices, exposing their superficiality in addressing colonial legacies and spatial significance. Beginning with an examination of the historical evolution of Toronto's landscape, some of the profound impacts of colonization are identified. My analysis delves into personal reflections on heritage and individual experiences within the settler-built environment. This thesis underscores the imperative for a change in attitudes among contemporary settlers, striving to promote a deeper understanding and heightened respect.
