We are thankful to be welcome on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered by the Williams Treaties and are the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to many Indigenous nations and peoples.

We acknowledge this land out of respect for the Indigenous nations who have cared for Turtle Island, also called North America, from before the arrival of settler peoples until this day. Most importantly, we acknowledge that the history of these lands has been tainted by poor treatment and a lack of friendship with the First Nations who call them home.

This history is something we are all affected by because we are all treaty people in Canada. We all have a shared history to reflect on, and each of us is affected by this history in different ways. Our past defines our present, but if we move forward as friends and allies, then it does not have to define our future.

FEL Motorsports is excited to announce the signing of a second-year agreement with Ontario Tech University and the Automotive Centre of Excellence (ACE) in support of the Emzone Radical Cup Canada presented by Michelin (Emzone RCC) for 2022.

The partnership with Ontario Tech University is rooted in investing and encouraging youth interest in motorsports in Canada. The shared mission is to help students find internship and co-op placements with FEL Motorsports teams, sponsors, and manufacturers. FEL Motorsports is also offering volunteer student positions to two Ontario Tech University students for the 2022 season. The volunteers will get high-level hands-on experience working in a professional racing series and will learn technical and operational support.
