 We're here today to celebrate a partnership between British Columbia and the Nan-Wakola's First Nations that has been built over the last decade and has been longed for for generations prior to that. It's a partnership that is creating economic opportunities while also protecting areas of cultural and natural significance. So I'm very honoured to be here to welcome you on behalf of our Coast Salish peoples to begin a new chapter of our history to seek honour and the crown as we work together to look at decision making and proper representation of our First Nations peoples in our own territories and our own lands. Thanks to our Chiefs who have taken this courageous step in going in a direction that isn't really been seen in British Columbia to date. And the approach that we found in Nan-Wakola's Nation's traditional territories is the incremental approach. I think about the four landslides that are blocking my Chiefs and my brothers from going home today and the approach that needs to be taken to fix that mess is one shovel load at a time. And that's simply what we've done over the last few years is we've taken some significant problems and we've broken them down to their bare roots and one shovel load at a time we've fixed them. One of the reasons why we built this wonderful Kwakwaanah behind us is to show that symbol for that relationship. I think that the past achievements that our governments have made together have really set the groundwork but we needed a symbol to tie it together. And the symbol of this canoe is wonderful in the fact that if we are not paddling together we will not get there. The work that Nan-Wakola's Council has done and the partnership that has been built over the past decade is making life better and creating a brighter future on Vancouver Island and the mid-coast for First Nations and non-aboriginal people alike. And that is what I would like to close on is reminding us all that this day, this celebration isn't just about economic development and opportunities for First Nations. It's about the strength that we can build together as First Nation and non-First Nation communities when we can construct these partnerships and share in a vision together. Thank you so very much. Thank you.
