səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation) celebrated the opening of our first Sports Field in community, an incredible milestone for our community. Our new full-sized turf field is a space for connection, recreation, and for future generations to gather, play, and grow together.

səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation)’s Treaty, Lands and Resources (TLR) Department, in partnership with the Kelp Rescue Initiative (KRI), have developed key findings, recommendations, and next steps for q̓am̓ (bull kelp) restoration and offsetting work in səlilwət (Burrard Inlet).

The səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation) Natural Resource Planning Team is pleased to announce that Phase 1 of the Whey-ah-Wichen Shoreline Restoration Project is complete! The second and final phase of the project, which will address erosion at Little Cates, will begin at the end of the summer.

səlilwətaɬ artist team Chris Overes and his daughter Tamia Overes designed the Coast Salish-inspired HSBC SVNS Vancouver medals for this year’s rugby tournament. The gold medals feature a carving-based design centred on an eagle, which represents strength, leadership, vision, and protection. The composition is based on an original hand-carved eagle created by Chris.

Today, March 3rd, is 100 Days to Go before FIFA World Cup 2026™ is hosted in Vancouver and in our shared, traditional territory. Our səlilwətaɬ elected leaders, Elders, language teachers, soccer players & champions, and our siʔáḿθət School students are excited to show what 100 Days to Go means to them!
