Tripartite Framework Agreement on First Nation Health Governance was signed as part of a sacred ceremony at the Capilano Longhouse on the traditional territory of the Coast Salish People in West Vancouver. It marked a critical moment of time when each of our respective parties reaffirmed our commit- ment to work together in wellness, and to a shared vision for improved health outcomes of all First Nations in British Columbia. The Framework Agreement was grounded in the Transformative Change Accord: First Nations Health Plan (2006), the First Nations Health Plan Memorandum of Understanding (2006), the Tripartite First Nations Health Plan (2007), and the Basis for a Framework Agreement on First Nation Health Governance (2010). As we continue down this innovative path, we need to work collaboratively to maintain our focus and maximize investments in our programs, services, and innovations to promote wellness, disease prevention, enhanced primary care, and traditional health wisdom.
