Band Members of the Sechelt Nation have spoken out on logging in the Chapman Creek watershed and their views can be heard in the video below produced by 'digitaldebbie' and posted to YouTube. Band Members Robert Joe, Willard Joe and Anthony Paul explain the Band's historical relationship to the lands of the watershed and it's significance to the Sechelt Nation today. What is encouraging to hear is Robert Joe's comments that the Band will stand up for "the protection of the drinking water of the Sunshine Coast."
Once again, we are making that video available on this blog. The video is 8 minutes long and will take some time to download for those on dial-up but it is worth watching.
