Treaty Update/Report Update

Treaty Negotiations Main table negotiations continue to be held on a monthly basis as we seek a second land/cash offer from the governments of BC and Canada to be tabled by October 2017. In addition to a treaty, agreements can be negotiated that will address current needs of a Nation. To this end, our negotiation team together with our economic development and legal advisor team negotiated with BC to achieve a Reconciliation Agreement – for Cultural ultural Revitalization and Capital Capita Building.. This means direct funding of $800,000 by the past March 2017 and $1 million additional expected by July toward the construction of our Bighouse.
