A limited partnership between four Vancouver Island First Nations and one of British Columbia’s major forest companies is being hailed as a path forward for the industry in the province.
Premier David Eby said Tuesday it’s an example of First Nations, businesses and communities working together on reconciliation after decades of conflict that included court battles over land issues. The partnership involving the K’omoks, Wei Wai Kai, Wei Wai Kum and Tlowitsis First Nations will operate on 157,000 hectares of forest near Campbell River and Sayward, and manage an allowable annual cut of more than 900,000 cubic metres of timber.
“Sometimes these relationships take some friction to push them over the line,” said Smith, adding he recalled the First Nations spending decades dealing with numerous B.C. governments and forest company executives before reaching the stage they are at now.
