First Nations, who have relied upon caribou, fish and other wild game for thousands of years, can no longer hunt them. The animals are gone, or are so toxic that they are unsafe to eat. This is a clear violation of the Treaty Rights of local First Nations, and they are now going to the Supreme Court to defend their Indigenous Rights and stop Site C. By doing this, the Dunne-Za and other First Nations and Metis who live further downstream on the Peace River are helping to protect the environment for all of us. We are so grateful for your leadership!

Thank you to Andrea Morrisson and the Peace Valley Environment Association for helping to organize yesterday’s forum and to the many farmers, ranchers, scientists and local community members that came out to participate. Thank you Chief Roland Willson for hosting us on behalf of Treaty 8 Tribal Association. Arlene Boon – please extend my gratitude to Ken for telling us more about the Peace Valley Landowner Association lawsuit on the phone. You guys are so strong and so tenacious and we are all so grateful to you.
