Engagement & insights


​Ove​​rview of B​​CCNM's engagement and insight​​s

Engaging with our registrants, the public, and other key partners is essential for our decision-making processes.  Our engagement activities are intended to foster me​​aningful dialogue, collaboration, and partnership with registrants, the public, and interest groups to contribute to inclusive, responsive, and relevant governance.​

BCCNM uses a range of engagement methods and tools—such as surveys, focus groups, online forums, social media, and community events—to reach different audiences and facilitate participation.  As part of our engagement program, we respect the privacy and confidentiality of individuals' personal information collected during engagement activities by​​ adhering to relevant laws, regulations, and best practices for data protection and security.​​​

We acknowledge the rights and title of the First Nations on whose collective unceded territories encompass the land base colonially known as British Columbia. We give specific thanks to the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ speaking peoples the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations and the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh-ulh Sníchim speaking Peoples the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), on whose unceded territories BCCNM’s office is located. We also give thanks for the medicines of these territories and recognize that laws, governance, and health systems tied to these lands and waters have existed here for over 9000 years.

We also acknowledge the unique and distinct rights, including rights to health and wellness, of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples from elsewhere in Canada who now live in British Columbia. As leaders in the settler health system, we acknowledge our responsibilities to these rights under international, national, and provincial law.​
