Musqueam is proud of the strong relationship we have with Transport Canada through our revenue-sharing and partnership agreements. We welcome the opportunity for meaningful dialogue regarding the future of Vancouver International Airport (YVR ) and any potential approach by the government to change the current operating model. YVR operates on Musqueam traditional territory, where Musqueam holds constitutionally protected Aboriginal rights under section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982.
Musqueam’s unique role at YVR has provided stability and mutual benefit for the airport and Musqueam people. We look forward to meaningfully participating in any change to YVR. We will be taking the time to understand the Prime Minister’s announcement and look forward to next steps.
Our focus is to empower the next generation while honouring the foundational relationships that have positioned us for success and shaped our journey together.
