It is a privilege to write this guide and we acknowledge the lands described in this report are within the 
ancestral territory of the Coast Salish people and as a reminder we are all connected.   
  
We are in a sacred relationship with all things in the natural world – the land, waters, and air, and all of the 
plants and animals we live with. Respect for the spirit and life in each of these, and the intricate relationships 
and interconnectedness we are all in together is a key value and principle of our culture.
