Maybe I’ve just missed seeing it. Wouldn’t be the first time.
And I always knew that Mr. Campbell was a hereditary chief of the Squamish First Nation.

I’m proud of our plan to build more, better public transit in Vancouver. . . .
Chéenchenstway – lifting each other up.

I propose the name Ascendance – and the demonym – Ascendant.
