The Salish Sea Spirit: The Journey of GCT Deltaport and Tsawwassen First Nation
This house post, titled the Salish Sea Spirit, represents the deep roots and traditional knowledge that bonds the Tsawwassen First Nation community’s identity to these lands, water, and air. And now, it stands as a symbol of stewardship at the mouth of the Salish Sea. This traditional work of art was crafted from red cedar by renowned Artist and Carver, Karl Morgan of the Tsawwassen First Nation, and commissioned by Global Container Terminals.
According to the traditions of the Coast Salish Peoples, a house post is raised to bring awareness to the land it is placed on. Given GCT Deltaport’s distinctive location, the Salish Sea Spirit house post acts as a beacon that tells the story of two neighbours (Global Container Terminals and Tsawwassen First Nation) with shared goals for protecting our vibrant ecosystem and building stronger relationships within our community.
