Territorial acknowledgement

The Passenger Transportation Board acknowledges the traditional territories of the many diverse Indigenous Peoples in the geographic areas we serve.

 

With gratitude and respect, we acknowledge that the Board’s office is located on the traditional unceded territories of the Lekwungen-speaking peoples (Songhees and Esquimalt), who are the traditional keepers of this land and whose historical relationships with this land continue today.
