We honour and pay respect to our Elders, who have and continue to play important roles and hold a prominent place in our communities and families. The strength and spirits of our Elders has carried the survival of our people. They are cultural knowledge holders, teachers, survivors, leaders, hard workers, and loved ones. We draw strength from their knowledge and experience in everything from water, land management, cultural knowledge, to justice and everything in-between.
