We respectfully acknowledge that the land on which we gather is the traditional and unceded territory of Indigenous nations throughout British Columbia. We extend our gratitude to the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people whose footsteps have marked these lands for generations and whose stewardship continues to this day. Many of these communities have lived on this land since time immemorial.
