VANCOUVER — A First Nations organization British Columbia says its members intend to peacefully take action to protect two lakes with cultural and spiritual significance from drilling by a mining company.The company says the drilling and related activities are an attempt to prove the lakes will not be harmed by its so-called New Prosperity Project, a proposed open-pit copper and gold mine west of Williams Lake.
A decision by B.C.’s Supreme Court last August allowed Taseko to proceed with investigative work around the site of the proposed mine, and the court refused to hear the Tsilhqot’in Nation’s appeal of that decision last month.
Indian -for northeanerican indigenous people is a racist definition. Indian is a person from India. The handouts, was an imposition from the European authorities, when they corralled the indigenous people, in a concentration camps (reservations)
Sacred lakes?
