Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Musqueam Indian Band Full time
Today, we are a strong, growing community of over 1,300 members.

We live on a small portion of our traditional territory, known as the Musqueam Indian Reserve, located south of Marine Drive near the mouth of the Fraser River.

The name Musqueam relates back to the River Plant, the name of the plant is məθkwəy̓.

There is a story that has been passed on from generation to generation that explains how we became known as the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam) - People of the River Plant.

We have always moved throughout our territory using the resources it provides for fishing, hunting, trapping and gathering.

We remain distinct and our cultural practices are strong, despite the devastating impacts of residential schools, colonial laws banning our ceremonies, and other attempts to assimilate our people.

Our lands and waters continue to support our cultural and economic practices while serving as a source of knowledge and memory, encoded with our teachings and laws.
