Today, the City of Vancouver sits on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. Individually or in consort, the three Lower Mainland First Nations have now become the largest developers of housing and comprehensive communities in Vancouver, with $20 billion worth of buildings in planning or under construction. Three of Vancouver’s key city-building thinkers will show and discuss some of these projects, describing the successes and frustrations both in integrating new players at the city-building table. Dennis Thomas is co-founder of Kwasen Enterprises, and North Shore cultural liaison for the massive MST Development Corporation. The founder of Formline Architects and a member of the Fond du Lac Band, Alfred Waugh FRAIC has earned two Governor-General’s Medals for his designs, and is currently finishing the First Nations Centre at U. Toronto’s Scarborough campus. Trevor Boddy FRAIC is a Vancouver architecture critic and curator, whose books include CITY-BUILDER: The Architecture of James K. M. Cheng and The Architecture of Douglas Cardinal, winner of the Alberta Book of the Year Prize.
