A Pronunciation Guide for Edmonton’s Ward Names

A Thread

I would like to acknowledge that the wards are part of Treaty 6 Territory, a traditional meeting ground for many Indigenous communities, including the Cree, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Blackfoot and the Métis Peoples. This guide is merely to help pronounce the Indigenous words. It is intended to educate respectfully, not teach the language. Please, at the very least, find out what the names mean. The first link posted includes short video clips on each ward. Watch them. Please.
