Abstract
Tsleil-Waututh are the “People of the Inlet” and a distinct Coast Salish nation whose territory includes Burrard Inlet. The Tsleil Waututh people occupied, governed, and acted as stewards of our territory prior to contact, at contact (AD 1792), at the British Crown’s assertion of sovereignty (AD 1846), and continue to do so today. Our ancestors maintained villages in eastern Burrard Inlet, exclusively occupied and defended the area, and intensively used all the natural resources there, especially marine and intertidal resources.
