We acknowledge that the land on which we live, learn, work and adventure is the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples- səl̓ilw̓ətaʔɬ (TsleilWaututh), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations. This land is home to many diverse Indigenous peoples and we honour and respect their connection to the land, oceans and rivers and its importance to our strength as a community.
