When the Nisga'a Tribal Council was preparing a land claim in northern British Columbia years ago, councilors went to the people for consensus on how much of their traditional lands they wanted returned to them.

Some of the Nisga'a members, council general manager Matt Moore told a recent conference on land claims, expected to retain 100 per cent of the land their ancestors had lived and worked on and advised the council to go for broke.

A 17-month blockade of a northern Saskatchewan logging road may come to an end with the signing of an interim co-management agreement between the band and a major logging company.

Canoe Lake Indian Band and NorSask Forest Products signed the agreement Oct. 12. In it a board of NorSask representatives and 12 Aboriginal and local representatives will thrash out how logging will be undertaken in the area.

Ruth Iron, one of the original protesters, credits the blockade for paving the way for an agreement.

New Brunswick Indians are threatening to set up toll booths on portions of the Trans Canada Highway in retaliation for an 11-per-cent provincial tax hike.

The idea to charge motorists has been brewing for some time, said Edmundston Chief Jean-Guy Cimone.
