Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that this work is carried out on the Traditional, Unceded, Ancestral, & Continually Occupied territories of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-waututh) Nations. We thank the First Peoples of Turtle Island for their continued care and stewardship of these lands since time immemorial. We recognise that settler colonialism has caused irreparable harms to the First Peoples of this land, and it continues to cause harm through the imposition of colonial systems and institutions in which Indigenous people have repeatedly and continually reported experiencing discrimination and state sanctioned violence.
