I had an opportunity to speak with Carolin de Ryck of CBC Daybreak North in early June about new research into Gitxaala’s alpine territory.

You can also take a look at some photos here on our K’tai photo album.

Liquid ‘Natural’ Gas (LNG) production and export is a major issue that touches all the hot buttons: environment, jobs, money, First Nations, and provincial elections.  Recently one north coast BC First Nation began consulting it’s membership regarding a 1.1 billion dollar 40 year deal with a foreign owned export consortium.  Much to a great many people’s surprise the community meetings have unanimously voted down the agreement.  I had the opportuity to address some of these issues and the bigger question of First Nations and BC’s economic development on BC Almanac on CBC radio.
