Tsilhqot'in

The Tsilhqot'in are a First Nations people in central British Columbia, Canada, with a rich cultural history and a strong connection to their ancestral lands. They have traditionally engaged in hunting, fishing, and gathering, maintaining a deep spiritual relationship with their territory. In 2014, the Supreme Court of Canada recognized their Indigenous rights and title to a significant portion of their land, affirming their authority to make decisions about its use. This legal decision marked a major step toward recognizing and respecting Indigenous land rights and self-determination within Canada.
