We respectfully acknowledge that we live, work, and gather on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), sÉ™lÌ“ílwÉ™taʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation), and xÊ·mÉ™θkÊ·É™y̓əm (Musqueam Nation).

We honor the enduring relationship these Nations have with this land and the waters that sustain it. We recognize their ongoing stewardship, knowledge, and culture, and we are committed to walking in respect, responsibility, and reciprocity as we live and work in their territories.
