Located just south of Vancouver, Tsawwassen First Nation successfully negotiated their modern day treaty and is a self governing Coast Salish Nation; the first of its kind for urban British Columbia. The Tsawwassen people are working to build a vibrant community that is at the forefront of economic, environmental, social and cultural sustainability.
Tsawwassen First Nation participated in the Circle of Governance Excellence, a program of our predecessor, the National Centre for First Nations Governance. This program gave recognition to Tsawwassen First Nation’s excellence in effective, independent governance and resulted in the development of these resources for First Nations communities across Canada:
