Exchange Inner City recognizes that its work takes place in what is now known as Vancouver, which is located on the unceded lands of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh(Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil- Waututh) who have lived here since time immemorial, who are Rights holders and stewards of these lands and waters.
Vancouver is located on territory that was never ceded, or given up to the Crown by the Musqueam, Squamish, or Tsleil-Waututh peoples. The term unceded acknowledges the dispossession of the land and the inherent rights that Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh hold to the territory. The term serves as a reminder that Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh have never left their territories and will always retain their jurisdiction and relationships with the territory.
Exchange Inner City commits to supporting reconciliation as it strives to implement Community Economic Development.
