Sumas First Nation (Semá:th) and the Province are taking a major step in their shared reconciliation journey through the purchase and acknowledgment of a sacred site.

From City of Abbotsford:

New agritech projects funded through the B.C. Centre for Agritech Innovation (BCCAI) are supporting more learning opportunities, new jobs and the creation of technologies that will strengthen production of local food. 

New support for manufacturing businesses in the Fraser Valley will create jobs, promote the development of made-in-B.C. products and strengthen local supply chains and communities.

A new, first-of-its-kind pilot program that uses hydrogen to power commercial trucking will help accelerate B.C.’s transition to a clean economy and create new opportunities for people and businesses with the support of provincial funding.

To help people in crisis and to free police to focus on crime, a new crisis response team is now in Abbotsford.

Students, families and staff can look forward to school improvements in Abbotsford that include a completed seismic safety upgrade this year.
