• Summary:"For Syilx (Okanagan) People, the ways of knowing siwłkʷ (water) are embedded in our language and bequeathed to us by our ancestors. Maintaining the integrity of siwłkʷ is essential to our identity and is entrenched in our responsibilities to our homelands. siwłkʷ is our most sacred medicine. This booklet is both a celebration of the relationship that we share with siwłkʷ and an invitation to others to reflect on their relationship with this vital gift."--Page [3].
