Centering host Nations

We value the opportunity to learn the true history of Vancouver and acknowledge the unjust treatment of xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples whose lands we occupy, and we encourage others in their work on the path of decolonization.
