Today is National Indigenous Peoples Day. North Shore Community Resources acknowledges and honours that we live and work on the unceded territories of the Coastal Salish people including the St’at’imc, Sḵwxwú7mesh (Squamish), xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
The recent discoveries at Indian Residential Schools and the long history of trauma in Indigenous communities is top of mind for NSCR on this day. There is much work to be done on the road to reconciliation. Today, we celebrate Indigenous peoples across Canada and in our own community. We invite our caring, non-Indigenous community members to learn more about the history and culture of the St’at’imc, Sḵwxwú7mesh (Squamish), xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
