Lytton residents are holding a rally Wednesday to protest the lack of rebuilding in their town, which burned to the ground more than two years ago after a devastating wildfire.

Lytton was built atop a significant First Nations heritage site that’s protected under the B.C. Heritage Conservation Act. The catalyst for Wednesday’s rally was a recent community meeting where a resident shared she was hit with a $22,000 quote from an archeological company to dig a trench to put her water and sewer lines.

In a statement, the Nlaka’pamux Nation Tribal Council said protecting and mitigating the remains of the heritage of the Nlaka’pamux and ensuring ancestral remains are not disturbed is of great importance to the Nation.
