You can do so by accessing the license verification tool.

The Origins of Our Logo: The Iconic Twin Peaks

For our logo, we wanted to reference the landscape and territory that hold deep meaning for local Indigenous Peoples. The twin peaks referenced are two mountain summits visible from Vancouver, British Columbia. In Squamish culture, the peaks are known as Ch'ích'iyúy Elx̱wíḵn (pronounced chee-chay-yuh ayhl-kweekh-n), which translates to "The Twin Sisters."
