🏠 Protect Indigenous homes. Extend Urban Native Housing agreements.

More than 5,000 Indigenous families across BC could be impacted if expiring Urban Native Housing operating agreements are not extended.

These homes provide more than affordable housing. They support family stability, cultural connection, and the wellbeing of Indigenous people in urban communities across Canada.

As the federal government prepares to release its budget on November 5, there is a critical opportunity to protect these homes and prevent further housing insecurity.

AHMA is urging the federal government to:
✅ Extend expiring Urban Native Housing operating agreements.
✅ Protect existing affordable homes for Indigenous families.
✅ Provide certainty and stability for Indigenous housing providers and the communities they serve.

Allowing these agreements to expire without a replacement would put thousands of families at risk and deepen an already critical housing crisis.

Indigenous families deserve housing security, not uncertainty. The federal government must act before it's too late.

We were so grateful to be apart of the Spirit Walk today and see the community coming together. 🧡

Thank you to the Survivors, Drummers, Ed Peekeekoot and his Wife for the gift of healing music. Thank you to the Miki'siw Metis Association for organizing and hosting. It was a beautiful day.

The Gukwas Sa Wagalus Welcome Totem Pole stands at Simms Park in Courtenay, British Columbia, near the 6th Street Active Transportation and Pedestrian Bridge. Raised on September 2, 2026, this powerful monument honors the traditional teachings, history, and enduring stories of the land in traditional Pentlatch territory within the unceded traditional territory of the K'ómoks First Nation. The project also served a vital educational purpose, as the creation process was hosted at Nala'atsi School to deeply connect local students with Kwakwaka'wakw cultural practices and artistry. The master carvers behind this monumental work are Karver Everson, Junior Henderson, Jalen Henderson-Price, and Matthew Everson.
