We acknowledge the traditional territory of the Coast Salish Lands, including the Tsleil-Waututh, Kwikwetlem, Squamish, and Musqueam Nations whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day. We express gratitude for the opportunity to live, work and play on this land.

We recognize and understand the vast diversity amongst Indigenous Nations directly relating to their culture and traditional territory and lands on which Canada now resides, and we acknowledge the inherent human rights of these nations of Indigenous peoples to their self-determination, governance, and title over their unceded traditional territories as reflected in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
