The Wetsueten are the people who actualy won the court case over these lands, but they are still getting fucked over , so how much does it cost ? The question might be how much more does it need to cost so things get changed ?Stupid asshole question here: What did they win in the court case and what court case?
They won Delgamuukw v. British Columbia,

Tsilcotin Nation vs British Columbia is also important & relevant

If you really have absolutely no idea then here are Coles notes cuz I doubt you want to read the entire decisions
So not only is Delgammuukw an important precedent in land claims law this is where Delgamuukw took place,
somewhere back in this thread I wrote about the Royal proclaimation of 1763, it was susposed to run Canada after the English took it from the french and the FN were part of it but FF to 1984 the gov sez they when BC became part of Canada the FN lost their rights, Delgamuukw sez in BC the FN never gave up their lands,
they have their own system of gov which was recognised in Delgamuukw so the herdeitary chiefs run the 22000kms of territory and the elected band councils only run the res, the band councils were imposed under the indian act to control the FN
The hereditary Chiefs would not deal with CGL on the pipeline so they made a deal with the band councils who have no authority to do so
Christy Clarke gave the green light, people I know in gov tell me the gov knew, also the NDP MLA for the bulkley stikine told the leg what was up back then
Horgan has chose to play along, the courts grant an injunction in favor of CGL the RCMP have thrown the Wetsueten off their lands twice
Which has resulted in the Blockades and protests from bands all over Canada which are not going away any time soon, note there are 1 million FN in canada BTW and then you got who knows how many enviro folks jumping on the bandwagon
I heard the rail blockade was costing CN 1 million a day
so its at least costing millions
it was nice and quiet that week the trains were off
there is so much activity going on I can't see how the wetsueten can stop the project ... its a big fucking mess
