Our holistic vision seeks to balance ethical growth with Tsleil-Waututh values.
We are People of the Inlet. We have lived in and along səlilwət (Burrard Inlet) in the Greater Vancouver region since time out of mind. As a Coast Salish Nation, we are proud of our rich history and cultural heritage. We have a profound obligation to both our Ancestors and future generations to protect and care for our water, land, air, and resources.
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 has a profound obligation to both our Ancestors and future generations to protect and care for our water, land, air, and resources. Our teams within the Treaty, Lands, and Resources (TLR) Department combine Indigenous and western science, and lead many research, policy, and restoration projects to help clean up səlilwət (Burrard Inlet).
A 6-storey, 50-unit rental building is being built in our Tsleil-Waututh community. The housing will be located in the new community subdivision along Spa-ath Road.
