The AOEC acknowledges that we are uninvited settlers on the lands we call British Columbia. This land is unceded, stolen land; it is the ancestral, traditional territories of the First Nations people who have lived here since time immemorial. Wherever you are on the land it is stolen from First Peoples. We have a responsibility to acknowledge the colonial history of Canada and to ask ourselves how we benefited from this history and to move forward with real actions toward reconciliation. Find out whose traditional territory you are on by clicking the link below.
