April 28, Kick-off Presentation
The kickoff meeting was a great way for Sḵwx̱wú7mesh People to learn about the Squamish Nation Constitution Project.
We gained a better understanding of what this project means, why it’s important, as well as why our Sḵwx̱wú7mesh People should be involved.
How To Support The Constitution Project As An Influencer
We want the Constitution to represent our community and to support future generations of Sḵwx̱wú7mesh People. That’s why it’s so important for every single Sḵwx̱wú7mesh person to help shape the Constitution through this Project. That’s where you, as an influence in our community, come in.
