We at Kwantlen Polytechnic University respectfully acknowledge that we live, work and study in a region that overlaps with the unceded traditional and ancestral First Nations territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), qi̓ cə̓ y̓ (Katzie), SEMYOME (Semiahmoo), scə̓ waθən (Tsawwassen), qiqéyt (Qayqayt), and kwikwəƛ̓ə̓ m (Kwikwetlem); and with the lands of the qw̓ ɑ:nƛ̓ə̓ n̓ (Kwantlen First Nation), which gifted its name to this university.
