$800 million invested in #Indigenous-led #conservation in the North! Let's also imagine how more southern/urban Nations can receive support for the incredible work they to do steward the lands and waters that most Canadians live on. Let's talk about #SisterIPCAs!
I have BIG news! Season 3 is coming! Thank you @LawFoundationBC 🙏🏽❤️
Squamish strongly objects to West Vancouver council dropping reading of land acknowledgment at meetings vancouversun.com/news/local-new…
So grateful for @LeahGazan and her perseverance. We have fought against deniers for so long. That is why this is profoundly important. A show of unity. 3 years ago the national press corps ripped Justice Marion Buller apart for saying the MMIWG crisis is a “genocide.”

Where are the mainstream headlines?! THIS IS HUGE NEWS- in a historic 1st, the House of Commons voted to recognize Canada's Indian residential schools as an act of genocide-motion passed unanimously @LeahGazan AFTER ALL THE YEARS OF DENIAL. TRUTH & RECKONING-GENOCIDE acknowledged
I wanna talk about the framing of the discussion surrounding @LeahGazan's great work having Canada's Indian residential school system recognized as "genocide" in the House of Commons. So let's talk about what this means and where we go from here.
Powerful truth acknowledged & declared unlawful in this vital ruling from Justice Michel Yergeau of the Quebec Superior Court in the case of Joseph-Christopher Luamba. “Racial profiling does exist. It is not a laboratory-constructed abstraction." 1/3 theguardian.com/world/2022/oct…
Endorsements don’t come any bigger than this in our little corner of the world! Thank you to former CJ McLachlin and the McLachlin Fund for supporting our #A2J and #EDI initiative. mclachlin.ca/news
Our first 25 #articling clinicians are located in 15 different BC cities & towns. They're also 75% #BIPOC & 24% #Indigenous. On Oct 31, 14 clinicians will offer their #legal services locally & remotely to the #public & to #lawyers, overseen by 16 #supervising lawyers.
Thanks so much @UVicLaw ❤️
I’m pleased to be articling with @EveryoneLegalBC, a public-interest legal teaching clinic and solo-/small-firm incubator created by @AccessProBono, & looking forward to deepening my skills in working for #AccessToJustice #socialjustice #humanrights #IndigenousPeoples

Heartbreaking. With streams running dry, migrating salmon are struggling to spawn, which impacts future years' salmon runs.
Heartbreaking. With streams running dry, migrating salmon are struggling to spawn, which impacts future years' salmon runs.
This is Neekas, Heiltsuk Territory. All of these salmon went into the creek, the creek dried up b/c of no rain so far this fall, and just died, and this is just one reach! Global warming is killing everything. This is such a sad scene. Video credit, Sarah Mund

The Muslim community is not homogenous. MAC does not speak for me. Islam is a religion of love for all of Allah’s creations—and we are duty bound to stand up against bullying and persecution. I stand proudly as an ally with 2SLGTBQIA+. I condemn this statement.
Statement by the Muslim Association of Canada (MAC) on Statements by Canadian Leaders and School Boards on Recent Protests macnet.ca/2023/official-…
It’s becoming disgusting how the criticism misses the point; it attempts to downplay years of struggle to get us to this point. We have an oral culture in these lands and inviting people to respect our culture is not meaningless.
This message is so offensive. It undermines the years of struggle our past elders went through to be able to have a platform in an era where our existence was outright denied by all institutions. Acknowledging Indigenous territory is not meaningless.

Every once in a while, in politics, you are drawn into a campaign and are inspired, your ideas are challenged, and it takes a lot of integrity to admit that it has changed you. It changed me. @MRichardson2018 it was great catching up and I look forward to the next chapter.
@SarahFischer__ And you're confident that men have been advancing all this time just based on merit?
Every Monday in March we'll be sharing the history of Sen̓áḵw. Follow for more – next Monday we'll share the courageous story of how Squamish Nation regained ownership of Sen̓áḵw. Sources: - cbc.ca/news/canada/br… - bardonthebeach.org/history-of-sen… - senakw.com/history
The government put residents onto barges, set them adrift in English Bay, and lit fire to the residents' homes. As the families' homes burned to the ground, the owner of a tug boat company saw the barges drifting aimlessly and tugged our ancestors to reserves in North Vancouver
This was possible due to a 1911 amendment to the Indian Act that allowed the government to remove Indigenous people from reserves within incorporated cities. Many of the Squamish Nation residents didn't want to leave their rightful home. How did the government get them to leave?
Increasing amounts of Sen̓áḵw land were expropriated. In 1886 over 3.5 acres for railways were expropriated, followed by another 7 acres in 1901. Eventually, in 1913, the federal government forcibly removed all Squamish Nation residents from Sen̓áḵw altogether.
In 1877, the Government of BC used the Indian Act to reduce Sen̓áḵw to 37 acres and rename the village to "Kitsilano Indian Reserve no. 6". Meanwhile, the city of Vancouver and its infrastructure continued to grow. What would this mean for our Squamish Nation ancestors?

Thank you for following along our storytelling of Sen̓áḵw's history this month. Is there anything you'd like to know about Sen̓áḵw's past or future? Sources: - cbc.ca/newsinteractiv… - cbc.ca/news/canada/br… - senakw.com/history - readsitenews.com/timeline-shows…
Sen̓áḵw was a bountiful, thriving @SquamishNation village before the Government of BC forced its residents out in 1913. What happened after the village was burned to the ground and Squamish Nation members were barged to other reserves? #senakw
