sχʷəy̓em̓

(an ancient history)

xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people have lived in our traditional territory, what is currently called Vancouver and the surrounding areas, for thousands of years. Some of our sχʷəy̓em̓ (ancient histories) describe the landscape as it was over eight thousand years ago.

Musqueam calls for removal of People’s Party candidate Renate Siekmann

Musqueam Indian Band stands firmly opposed to this egregious comparison, and calls for the immediate removal of Siekmann as a candidate for the People’s Party of Canada.
