Description
I am Slade Williams from Sqwa First Nations in Chilliwack, BC, in the Sto:lo territory and of Coast Salish origin. I have grown up in my ancestral village raised to learn my own traditions and culture with my very large family. I’ve grown to become a warrior through my training as a war canoe paddler and raced in the circuit reaching south to Seattle, Washington and the southern part of Vancouver Island. Many years of continued learning and practicing the culture.
