Snuneymuxw First Nation

The Snuneymuxw First Nation is one of the largest Nations in B.C. with a population of over 1,700 people. We are one of the few Nations that have a pre-Confederation treaty with the Crown - the Treaty of 1854. Unfortunately, it has been systematically undermined, ignored and dishonoured by the Crown and as a result we currently live on the smallest reserve land base per capita of any First Nation in British Columbia. In this context, the Snuneymuxw First Nation is striving to create opportunities to fulfill our potential as individuals, families, and as a Nation. The dynamics that guide our work can be found in the wisdom of our Elders, our Snawayalth (teachings), and the principled work ethic developed and refined through centuries of governing our Territory. These facts are key aspects of our strength and opportunity. Please leave the Logs! The new QQS School is under way and we need your help! Please do NOT remove and/or cut up any logs found on the property on Gordon Road. These logs are for the school kid's future playground.
