Éy Swáyel dear community members, Please enjoy Éy Swáyel dear community members, Please enjoy our latest efforts to connect with our communities and to engage you in the work of the Stó:lō Xwexwílmexw Treaty Association (SXTA). Áthélets/Aitchelitz and Yeqwyeqwí:ws/Yakweakwioose reached quorum and voted YES on the Constitution in November 2020. Our process is still alive and requires ongoing work in the remaining four communities to achieve voting quorum on the Constitution: 𝗟𝗲𝗾’𝗮́:𝗺𝗲𝗹/𝗟𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗵𝗺𝗲𝗻; 𝗦𝗾’𝗲𝘄𝗮́:𝗹𝘅𝘄/𝗦𝗸𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗵𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸; 𝗦𝗾’𝗲𝘄𝗾𝗲́𝘆𝗹/𝗦𝗸𝗼𝘄𝗸𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗵’𝗶𝘆𝗮́𝗾𝘁𝗲𝗹/𝗧𝘇𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗻. The SXTA recognizes and respects the uniqueness of each of our member First Nations. SXTA staff are in dialogue with communities to do this work. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the new Stó:lō Signal Bulletin and our latest episode of the Stó:lō Signal Podcast. Click link below to view 👉🏾 https://www.sxta.bc.ca/multimedia/bulletin/
