The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
1st Session
42nd Parliament
A
A
We
are
169
years
and
one
month
removed
from
the
day
that
sir
james
douglas
collected,
the
marks
of
rcm
guaranteeing
the
fishing
and
hunting
rights
of
the
this
institution
has
never
fulfilled
its
responsibilities
to
that
treaty.
Mr
speaker,
in
the
years
following
officers,
took
away
our
swallow
sacred
fishing
nets
and
arrested
our
hunters
more
than
two
decades
ago,
my
father
was
arrested
by
officers
empowered
by
the
laws
created
in
this
chamber
for
participating
in
his
treaty
protected
hunt.
A
Yet
my
father
and
our
people
persevered.
Mr
speaker,
we
are
here
today
with
many
successful
defenses
of
our
fishing
and
hunting
rights,
including
my
father's
victory
at
the
supreme
court
of
canada,
jim
morris
white.
Bob
bartleman
morris
and
olson
those
are
just
some
of
the
names
of
the
warriors
who
fiercely
and
selflessly
defended
our
rights.
