Wildfire has been part of this landscape for thousands of years, but the conditions surrounding it have changed.

George Jennings from the Land and Resources Department explains how reduced landscape resilience can increase wildfire risk, threatening homes, culturally significant areas and surrounding communities.

When wildfire reached the region this summer, the department worked with BC Wildfire Service to advocate for the resources needed to respond as quickly as possible.

This work is not only about reacting when a fire starts. It is also about understanding the land, protecting what is at risk and supporting a more resilient landscape for the future.

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

We remember the children who never came home, and we honour the Survivors, families and communities who carry this every day.

Residential schools tried to take our language, our songs and our ways of being together. They are still here, carried by our Elders and carried forward by our youth.

Wherever you are, near home or far away, you belong to this community.

Llenllenéy'ten (High Bar First Nation) is not hosting a public event this year. As a community, we are choosing to observe September 30 together and to support our Elders who attended residential schools.

We invite everyone to take time this week to reflect, learn, and honour Survivors and their families in their own way.

09/28/2026

For those who are not members of Llenllenéy'ten (High Bar First Nation), reconciliation begins with learning the truth.

That means understanding the history of these lands, correcting misinformation about the past, and recognizing the relationship our members have with this territory. It is a relationship that has existed since time immemorial.

Llenllenéy'ten has always welcomed guests who come with respect. This National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we invite you to learn whose land you are on and the history it holds.
