B.C. to address Supreme Court ruling, chiefs’ hangings in 1864: Premier Clark
Canadian Press
Christy Clark will be British Columbia’s first premier to visit the controversial Tsilhqot’in Nation territory as she negotiates a new relationship with an aboriginal group that has a recent high court rights ruling and 150 years of ill feelings over the hangings of six of its chiefs. Clark arrives next week in the remote Nemiah Valley near Williams Lake for what is expected to be several ventures to the area in coming months. …He called the meeting with Clark positive, significant and powerful, saying the premier also committed to make an official visit to Tsilhqot’in territory Oct. 26 to participate in annual celebrations marking the 1864 hangings.
