Tsawwassen First Nation celebrates treaty effective date

Tsawwassen First Nation celebrates treaty effective date

On Friday, the Tsawwassen First Nation is celebrating the effective date of their treaty!

It’s the first urban treaty in modern-day British Columbia, and means the Tsawwassen First Nation will be self-governing, as well as transferring over land and funding to them. (The Surrey Leader has a great article on the treaty, if you’d like to read more.)

In honour of such a momentous occasion, TransLink will be providing free service on the #609 Community Shuttle on Friday April 3, which travels through Tsawwassen First Nation land.

All our best to the Tsawwassen First Nation!
