The Nisg̱a’a Lisims Government is determined to govern by the principles of the Ayuuḵ, the time honoured Nisg̱a’a code. All decisions are considered according to Sayt-Ḵ’ilim-Goot, the Nisg̱a’a Common Bowl philosophy. We believe we are bound together as one people in all that we do.
Nisg̱a’a Nation—One heart, one path, one nation.
K’alii-Aksim-Lisims, the Nass River, flows through a land of sacred mountains and dense forests on Canada’s Pacific Coast. The Nisg̱a’a people have lived in the Nass River Valley since before recorded time.
The Nisg̱a’a Final Agreement, British Columbia’s first modern treaty, recognizes Nisg̱a’a Lands and Nisg̱a’a Government. An example of hope, trust, and cooperation, the Nisg̱a’a Final Agreement is being studied by governments and Indigenous people the world over.
