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!

Check out the new Stewardship Initiatives Map created by səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation)’s Treaty, Lands and Resources Department to summarize previous and ongoing work that contributes to restoring the health of səlilwət (Burrard Inlet).

Congratulations to Tsleil-Waututh artist Ocean Hyland for designing the Vancouver Canucks’ new First Nations Celebration logo. Her beautiful work honours our Tsleil-Waututh Nation’s coastal connection, including the orca, the wolf, the eagle, and the raven.

Alongside leaders from Musqueam Indian Band and Squamish Nation, we were recognized on the Power 50 list for advancing the City of Vancouver’s UNDRIP Action Plan, bringing affordable housing to Vancouver residents through the Attainable Housing Initiative, and shaping the hosting of the 2026 FIFA World Cup in Vancouver.

The səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation) Natural Resource Planning Team is excited to announce significant progress on the Whey-ah-Wichen shoreline restoration project. This fall saw the completion of the upland portion of the project. Perhaps the most exciting feature is a new picnic shelter, located between the boat launch and Wally’s Burgers, which features səlilwətaɬ red posts and yellow cedar beams.

BCAA’s Evolve E-Bike Share is expanding services to səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation), and by extending service along Dollarton Highway into Parkgate and Deep Cove. The new partnership between səlilwətaɬ and Evolve focuses on improving access to transport for Members within the community and enhancing connections with neighbouring communities.
