hən̓q̓əmín̓əm̓ signage at the University of British Columbia Vancouver campus

... that Larry Grant provided hən̓q̓əmín̓əm̓ language names to street signs on the University of British Columbia campus? Source: "“With these new signs, Elder Larry Grant and the Musqueam community are sharing their knowledge about how a place is understood and how people move across the land,” said Ono during the event." Du Bois, Samuel (8 April 2018). "UBC and the Musqueam First Nation unveil street signs in hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ language". The Ubyssey. The Ubyssey Publications Society.
- ALT1: ... that despite being Musqueam, Larry Grant was excluded from attending the Canadian Indian residential school system as the government recognized him as a Chinese citizen? Source: "While Elder Larry Grant lacked a strong connection to the Chinese side of his family, his citizenship status as Chinese created an exceptionally rare set of circumstances; he and his siblings were excluded from attending residential school, which operated in Canada from 1831 to 1996." Peng, Jenny (2 June 2023). "Larry Grant (sʔəyəɬəq)". The Canadian Encyclopedia. Anthony Wilson-Smith.
- ALT2: ... that because of the provisions of the Indian Act forbidding his parents from cohabitation, Musqueam elder Larry Grant seldom saw his Chinese-Canadian father while growing up? Source: "Growing up Grant hardly saw his father, except for occasional dinners at the bunkhouses where his father lived with other farmers. The Indian Act stipulated that non-Indigenous peoples were not permitted to cohabit on the reserve." Peng, Jenny (2 June 2023). "Larry Grant (sʔəyəɬəq)". The Canadian Encyclopedia. Anthony Wilson-Smith.

- Comment: Been a while since I did another DYK, chalk that up to life being a bit challenging on my end. Reluctant to use ALT1 over ALT0 and ALT2. Thank you in advance to the reviewer!
