  • Connectivity in British Columbia
    CONNECTIVITY IN BRITISH COLUMBIA Indigenous Communities A message from the artist In times past, it was politics and trade that kept Indigenous communities on the northwest coast connected. In the case of the Haida, being on an island, we didn’t have certain resources that the mainland people did, such as ooli- chan grease and mountain goat hair. We needed to create items that would appeal to the mainland groups we were trading with. Over time, the Haida developed specialized industries, including canoe-making, and a commer- cial art market. Though we had always made ceremonial and local trade pieces, producing art as an item of commerce on this scale helped to further refine the principles of Haida art. I see the work TELUS is doing in helping to connect Indigenous communi- ties with high-speed internet as helping to reestablish some of these ancient multinational relationships. It's enabling Indigenous communities to better communicate with one another, support one another, and to work together toward a healthier future. Iljuuwaas | Tyson Brown tysonbrown.ca A message from TELUS As part of our commitment to reconciliation with Indigenous communities, TELUS wants to support the cultural and artistic practices of Indigenous Peoples. In doing so, we must be aware of the historical role corporations have played in misappropriating Indigenous culture and art. We have an ob- ligation and responsibility to ensure that TELUS’ use of Indigenous art in our spaces is respectful of Indigenous voices. To this end, we collaborated with Tyson on the intent, context and manner of the art used within this document to ensure he retained full intellectual property and control of his creations.
