The pacific northwest, on the Canadian side, has its own divergent terms of inclusivity. Mostly in reference to existing forms of inclusivity that were never controversial in some of the pre-colonial civilizations that already existed there. But require labels and grouping with other edge cases for any meaningful representation and protection in the post-colonial society.

That being said, it means the rest of us dont really need to try to match that up with our own forms of inclusivity. It is always important to poll and gauge the consensus.

Right now, what goes on in BC/Vancouver with maybe a little spillover into Washington is not representative of anything the rest of us need to be aware of or adapt in our vocabulary as if it is consensus.

Useful to know if you’re in vancouver or meet indigenous from vancouver, as there is significant overlap in the inclusionary efforts and indigenous representation.
