The participants, organizers, and hosts of the Festival of Dangerous Ideas would like to pay their respects to the people of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and Scǝwaθǝn (Tsawwassen) məsteyəxʷ (Nations) and all Hǝn̓q̓ǝmin̓ǝm̓ (Hul'qumi'num) speaking people who allow us to learn, play, work, and think dangerously on their traditional, unceded and occupied lands. We also pay our respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging, who have influenced the honest and critical dialogue that we hope to have during the Festival of Dangerous Ideas.
