A group of B.C. guide outfitters say they've been abandoned by the provincial government.
Several guide outfitters from the Chilcotin plateau say they're losing their livelihoods as an unintended consequence of the historic Tsilhqot'in First Nation Supreme Court Ruling. Richard Zussman reports.The guides have been negotiating compensation for years after the historic Tsilhqot’in First Nation ruling at the Supreme Court of Canada meant they would lose access to their hunting rights on the Chilcotin plateau.
“We are in a really tough spot, at my age you don’t want to have to start from scratch,” he told Global News.The court ruling recognized Indigenous land and title and restricted access for a handful of guide outfitters and ranchers. “The cost of reconciliation needs to be borne by all Canadians, and not just the five of us,” he said.
