Land Acknowledgement
We would like to acknowledge, with gratitude and appreciation, that the land on which we live and operate in Smithers is the unceded, traditional territory of the Gidimt’en Clan and the Wet’suwet’en Nation. These lands are also home to many other Indigenous people, including the Inuit and Métis.
We work together to strengthen our region and support newcomers, youth, or entrepreneurs in their journey toward integration, success, or wellness.
