Philosophy

The philosophy of the Tsilhqot'in National Government is based on traditional Tsilhqot'in beliefs and values.

Tsilhqot'in traditional community life provides a sense of belonging, acceptance, sharing and respect for its individuals and families. If these values and beliefs are encouraged and embraced, then trust and interdependence will grow and help to foster strong communities, families and supportive individuals strengthening the Nation.

The focus of the Tsilhqot'in National Government will be to help Tsilhqot'in Communities in their development through the use of a strong cultural and spiritual base, the understanding of traditional values and beliefs, and through the development of positive attitudes and skills while balancing contemporary and traditional life styles.
