shíshálh Nation proudly congratulates Aaron Joe on being named the 2026 Indspire Awards recipient in the Business & Commerce category.

Aaron’s leadership, vision, and commitment to environmental stewardship continue to inspire our community and people across the country. Through Salish Soils and his work advancing regenerative practices, food sovereignty, and sustainable economic development, Aaron embodies the values of caring for the land, community, and future generations.

The Indspire Awards are among the highest honours given to Indigenous peoples, recognizing outstanding achievement and leadership across Turtle Island. Aaron’s recognition is a proud moment for the entire shíshálh Nation.

ch’iy-it-tsi-chen (Congratulations) to Aaron for your dedication, leadership, and for showing what is possible when Indigenous knowledge and innovation guide the way forward.

Today, we gathered in community to honour and remember Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit people.

We raise our hands in gratitude to everyone who came out to stand with us. Each step taken, each voice lifted, each drumbeat and each moment of silence shared carries the strength of our ancestors and the love we hold for those who are no longer with us.

We stand for our sisters, our daughters, our aunties, our friends, taken too soon and never forgotten.

We will not be silenced.
We will continue to speak their names.
We will continue to demand justice.
We will continue to fight for our stolen sisters and Two-Spirit relatives.

Our voices are powerful. Our community is strong. And together, we will keep pushing forward, for truth, for justice, and for the generations to come.

shíshálh Nation is proud to stand alongside the Arrowhead Clubhouse and the important work they do for our Nation members and the greater Sunshine Coast community.

For over 35 years, the Clubhouse has created a safe and welcoming space for connection, healing, and honest conversations around mental health, addiction, and intergenerational trauma. This work continues to make a real difference for many, including our own members.

Recently, hiwus kwa’saʔlahuet Warren Paull, hihewus chusep Jamel Paul, hihewus tsesote Benny Pierre Jr., hihewus lh'ayaxwemat Selina August, and hihewus xwaʔ Phil Paul met with representatives from Arrowhead to recognize the important work carried out by the organization.

Our hands go up to Arrowhead Clubhouse for their ongoing care and commitment to our community.

On this Earth Day, we reflect on what it means to belong to this land.

Since time immemorial, the shíshálh people have held a deep historical, cultural, social, and spiritual connection to our swiya. The land and waters of the swiya are not separate from us, they are part of who we are.

Our roots go deep into Mother Earth grounding us in responsibility, respect, and care.

Today, and every day, we honour that connection by protecting these lands and waters for those who came before us and for the generations still to come.

Our hands go up to the Sunshine Coast Healthcare Auxiliary Society for their extraordinary $100,000 contribution in support of tutulshenam-áwtxw (Healing House). Learn more about our project by visiting tutulshenam.org

As we mark 10 years since the toxic drug crisis was declared a public health emergency in BC, we are deeply honoured to acknowledge the Sunshine Coast Healthcare Auxiliary Society and their extraordinary $100,000 contribution in support of tutulshenam-áwtxw (Healing House).

For decades, the Sunshine Coast Healthcare Auxiliary has played a vital role in enhancing the quality of healthcare across the region—providing volunteer services, raising essential funds, and fostering strong community support for the hospital and related healthcare programs. Their legacy of care and commitment continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people on the Sunshine Coast.

This transformative gift brings us significantly closer to realizing a dedicated healing and recovery space for BC First Nations communities. A new facility, grounded in culture, community, and trauma-informed care.

We are profoundly grateful for your leadership, generosity, and shared commitment to strengthening health and wellbeing across the Sunshine Coast.

Today, we recognize World Water Day.

For the shíshálh Nation, water is more than a resource, it is life. It connects us to our ancestors, our lands, and to one another. Our rivers, lakes, and ocean have sustained our people since time immemorial, and continue to carry our teachings forward.

We are reminded of our responsibility to care for the waters that care for us, to protect them, to respect them, and to ensure they remain strong for future generations.

shíshálh Nation is pleased to share a positive update following the recent break-in at the tems swiya Museum and the tsain-ko Gift Shop.

Through investigative work by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), a suspect has been identified and apprehended. Video footage from the site played an important role in helping authorities identify the individual involved.

All items that were taken from the tsain-ko Gift Shop have now been recovered and returned.

shíshálh Nation would like to thank the RCMP for their diligence and investigative efforts in resolving this matter and recovering the items so quickly. We also raise our hands to everyone who played a role in ensuring the safe return of these items.
