Treaty 8

A B.C. First Nation and provincial government have signed what's being called a historic agreement towards jointly managing land, water and resource development. 

The United Nations anti-racism committee is making it difficult for the federal and provincial governments to hide behind a court decision allowing continued construction of the Site C dam.

The Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation sought to block the expansion of Syncrude Canada Ltd's Mildred Lake oilsands operation in a filing to the province's energy regulator, adding another indigenous legal challenge to the region's resource exploitation.

Their story of poverty and neglect went from northern Alberta to the world and on Tuesday, November 13, 2018, decades of determination paid off when the Lubicon Lake Cree signed a long-awaited treaty with Canada.

Alberta's Lubicon Cree have been fighting for decades for a land they could call their own.

Winnipeg-Centre MP Robert-Falcon Ouellette isn't too sure consultation really took place with First Nations impacted by the Site C Dam in northwestern B.C.

Ottawa has an obligation to uphold treaty rights in relation to the $9−billion Site C dam project in British Columbia, two First Nations groups from the province argued Monday.

The organization says the mega project on the Peace River threatens the human rights of indigenous peoples.

Protest organizers from the group "Fight C" said the dam on the Peace River proposed by BC Hydro is a waste of taxpayer money and infringes on the rights of First Nations.

Desmog Canada decided to show the faces of those who would be affected by the construction of the Site C dam.

The Crown corporation has had enough of the camped-out protesters, whom they claim pose health and safety risks to BC Hydro employees.
