Everyday I am so deeply grateful to be able to work, live and enjoy this land I am so privileged to be on. Reconciliation is something I work everyday towards.  Although a small step, I want to honour and acknowledge the history of Golden. The Secwépemc( seh-WEP-uh-muhc)  name for Golden is C7es7ístkten (Tsuh-ess-EE-sht-ken) , which translates to “Winter.” Suggesting Golden was traditionally used during winter seasons by Secwépemc peoples. 

This land is unceded, meaning it was never legally given up to the Crown through a treaty or other agreement; it was stolen and colonized. It still belongs to the Ktunaxa (k-too-nah-ha) and Secwépemc (also known as Shuswap) Peoples. Before settlers, these peoples practiced self governance with their laws, oral traditions, and lived off the land and water.

The Ktunaxa have lived in the Kootenay and Columbia River watersheds for over 10,000 years. Their traditional territory spans about 70,000 square kilometres across southeastern BC Alberta, Montana, Washington, and Idaho. For generations, they moved seasonally. The Secwépemc (Shuswap) have lived on Secwépemcúl’ecw, a territory across BC’s interior that includes the Columbia River Valley and the Rockies. The Métis Nation, Columbia River Society is also an active part of these lands today. 

I am and will always be a settler on this land we call Canada, and am forever grateful. I am of Irish-catholic and Scottish decent, and my family has been settled in Alberta for 4 generations on both sides. I respect the oral practices, cultures, and traditions that were here long before I came and continue to thrive and shape this land.
