Tourists' expectations unrealistic

Page 4

The romance of the old west brings thousands of tourists to the Calgary Stampede every year. The attraction is an imaginary reminiscing of the old days of adventure, colonization and brute strength of the fearless pioneers that settled the west. Overseas tourists anticipate exploration of this young country where civilization is imaged as igloos, traplines and log cabins.

The tide in the dispute over West Coast Native fishing rights took a strange and sudden turn this past month.

The B.C. Fisheries Survival Coalition, the group representing mostly non-Native fishermen, took a remarkably different tack in their quest to hold sovereign reign over the quickly shrinking stocks of sockeye salmon.

"When a non-Native government deals with the Native community, the relationship is nation-to-nation," Savage said. "These are not discussions between a government and the citizens governed. These are negotiations between nations."
