Background

The Sliammon Comprehensive Community Plan (CCP) was undertaken to support:
community development; nation building; building a foundation for self-government and
treaty implementation; and ultimately for creating a better quality of life for present and
future generations.

An important objective of the CCP process was to consult meaningfully with our people,
to build trust and to demonstrate openness and transparency. From January to
December 2006, Sliammon implemented a consultation strategy which included three
streams: consultation with the community; consultation with departments & entities; and
consultation with chief and council. Working together, we have created a vision for the
future of the Tla’Amin Nation and a plan for how to reach that vision.

The Sliammon CCP was initiated in September 2005. The plan was completed through
grants from INAC Capital Projects & Infrastructure, the BC Treaty Commission and the
BC Real Estate Foundation.
