'We’re all still here’: Wet’suwet’en chiefs and government enter third day of talks amid pipeline dispute

On Saturday morning, the two cabinet ministers said they remain cautiously optimistic about the talks focused on Wet’suwet’en rights and title to their unceded traditional territory.“It’s the third day of talks, which wasn’t the original plan,” Mr. Fraser told reporters on Saturday morning. “There was work going on till the wee hours this morning and we’re all still here. We’re working with respect. It’s a good sign but these are difficult and challenging issues.

“We want to be able to change the way, and the kind of partnership that we require nation to nation,” she said. “That’s what we have to disentangle and make clear.” Coastal GasLink has reached project agreements with 20 elected First Nation councils, including five elected Wet’suwet’en band councils along the pipeline route.But the group of Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs has led a vocal campaign against the pipeline’s construction, saying hereditary leaders, not elected band councillors, have jurisdiction over their traditional territory located outside of federal reserves.

The government went around the ELECTED chiefs, 8 Hereditary Chiefs who approved it, and band members who approved it to do a “side deal” with 5 UNELECTED ONES.... What the hell are they doing...? Pandering to terrorists...

Tootsie meets Tsuut’ina....

Tough for those pathetic unelected losers to cash that cheque on a Sunday - figuring the buyout is today.....
