PICNet wishes to acknowledge with gratitude that we work and live on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of many B.C. First Nations who have cared and nurtured this land for all time. PICNet’s office in Vancouver is located on the traditional land of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We also acknowledge that there are other Indigenous people that live on these lands that originate from their own respective territories outside of these lands, the Chartered Communities of the Métis Nation B.C., and Inuit.
