Xeni Gwet’in Chief Roger William and B.C. Premier Christy Clark meet on Tsilhqot’in title land with members of the Tsilhqot’in Nation Wednesday at the Xeni Gwet’in traditional site above Chilko Lake in Nemiah Valley.

Come see what you have been

It was a day for the history books. Under brilliant blues skies and with the majestic Coast Mountains rising above Chilko Lake behind them, members of the Xeni Gwet’in First Nation welcomed Premier Christy Clark Wednesday as she set foot on Aboriginal title land for the first time in Canadian history. “This is huge. This is history,” Xeni Gwet’in Chief Roger William told leaders and members gathered at the community’s traditional village, located near the west end of the Nemiah Valley, for the occasion. “We have an opportunity to move forward and learn from the past … to change the future.” Clark took a bold step toward that future by signing a Letter of Understanding with the chiefs during her afternoon visit.
