The Tsimshian Tribal Council (TTC) has been shut down and the society put into receivership, ending a bitter power struggle between the council and its member bands.

The TTC's doors closed last month after years of dispute and disarray in the Tsimshian Nation came to a head with a recent ruling by the B.C. Supreme Court that gave the bands the power to dissolve the council.
