Long before Canada was formed through colonial systems, the Stó:lō (people of the river) occupied the land on which UFV is located. They lived historically, and continue to live in the Fraser Valley and lower Fraser Canyon of British Columbia speaking Halq'eméylem, also known as the upriver dialect. As a Sikh woman, I am dedicated to honouring those pasts, presents and futures and working towards decolonizing academia in a spirit of solidarity.
