I am grateful to live, work, play, and raise my family on this beautiful island, as a settler on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples. This includes the lands of the W̱SÁNEĆ (Pauquachin, Tsartlip, Tsawout, Tseycum), Lkwungen (Esquimalt and Songhees), Malahat, Pacheedaht, Scia’new, T’Sou-ke, the Traditional Territory of the North Saanich Bands, and the Hul’qumi’num-speaking peoples. I hold deep respect and appreciation for the stewardship, culture, and history of these communities.
