Recently,A B.C. First Nation is set to declare a vast chunk of the Chilcotin as a tribal park, including the site of the controversial proposed New Prosperity mine at Fish Lake.The tribal park would cover about 3,120 square kilometres and protect cultural, heritage and ecological values, according to the Tsilhqot’in, while connecting to five surrounding provincial parks.

This decision definitely will accelerate the economics develop of the Chilcotin–by attracting a lot of visitors.In the meanwhile also helps the Chilcotin protecting its aboriginal culture and environment.Which is a win-win strategy.

But there is still some problems with dealing this issue. Aboriginal’s view is this place is  their sovereign territory,people going into the territory and applying for licences of occupation or permits … will have to go through the First Nations government-The India ACT. The question now is that it is very complex to apply for that permit.This will lead to people would rather go to some else easily and conveniently,but not the tribal park.

With the globalization faster and faster, cultures of the whole world seems to be assimilated.In this case, it becomes more and more important to protect the culture of The First Nation’s in Canada.If the government can do something to simplified the process of get into territories of aboriginal,there must are a lot of people willing to visit there.So aboriginals tell their stories to tourists,it reminds them of their cultures and traditions again and again.Also,tourists will bring them a lot of business opportunities.
