It’s a big goal. The solutions exist. It’s time to transform our society together.

Our Values
Legacy
Creating something of lasting value which we pass on through our heritage for future generations.
Helpfulness
Motivated by making the world a better place
Accuracy
Motivated by a need to get it right, visualize relevancy, and understand how everything fits together. We help people feel more intelligent, more responsible, and more in control.
Unity
To unify our community, gather and feel collected around a common idea or challenge. We help people feel supported, nourished, and well connected.
Positivity
No doom and gloom here! But also this is a froo-froo free space! We use a realistic, optimistic and science-based approach to keep people encouraged and pumped to join the movement.
Inclusivity
Influence through acceptance of everyone’s diverse circumstances, needs and identities. We are stronger together, and anyone is welcome to be a part of that.
Statement of Commitment
Una Terra stands in solidarity with the LGBTQIA2S+ community and minority groups who have been held down through the continued colonial legacy. We will learn and unlearn, in order to fulfil our mission. We use the phrase “women” & “non binary friends” in an effort to be inclusive of the broad spectrum of female & non male identifying people while still maintaining our niche in marketing.
We also use the word Nation – to encompass all nations that reside within Canadian territory. We acknowledge that Canada is a colonized country with individual national identities that function within it. We acknowledge that the colonial history is deeply embedded in our institutions and we are actively trying to dismatnle them in order to create the Canada in which true equity is achieved.
We acknowledging the territory where we live, play and work and that Indigenous, Metis, and all First Peoples should take place within the larger context of genuine and ongoing work to forge real understanding, and to challenge the legacies of colonialism.
