Our Philosophy
Sanctuary North is a gift that is meant to be shared. It sits on traditional Algonquin territory and we are simply guests on the land. It is a place where all living things, and especially human beings, are valued and protected.
In this place we are no longer refugees or immigrants or Canadians. Here we are all citizens of the earth.
Here all living beings are part of our community of care and concern. Welcome is our way of being at Sanctuary North. We treat the earth with reverence. We treat each other with respect. All cultures, races and ages are welcome here. All differences are respected and valued.
At Sanctuary North we all receive the gifts of this beautiful place and we all contribute the gifts which we have – our work, our time, our money – to make Sanctuary North a place of communion and community.
