Sq’éwqel (Seabird Island Band)
Who We Are
The Sq’éwqel (Seabird Island Band) exists to promote a healthy, self-sufficient, self-governing, unified and educated community. We aim to achieve physical, emotional, mental, spiritual and cultural balance.
Communal pride and respect rely on family values and tolerance for other people’s beliefs and views, and we hope to uphold this ideal within our community. We want to co-exist with other communities and governments while exerting our right to be a self-governing nation.
Sq’éwqel promotes full employment, the development of our local economy, and improved housing conditions. We want our community to be a safe and prosperous place for our people, and strive to achieve a high standard of living for all Band Members.
