Treaty 8 First Nations have had to watch ancestral lands dug up for the future reservoir of the troubled #SiteC dam. To grasp the sheer size of that needless reservoir, a photo essay. Here is one of the shipping container huts full of archaelogical artefacts.. #bcpoli #bcelxn2020

Inside are bankers boxes - tens of thousands of them - full of artefacts dug up during #SiteC work. Box after box after box. They& #39;re being held by BC Archaeology Branch. I was sent these photos by a friend; these are his ancestral lands. What are we doing, BC? #bcpoli #bcelxn2020

..Shipping containers and bankers boxes full to the brim with a people& #39;s history and culture. The scale of the disruption is staggering. And it& #39;s all for a dam we did not need, & whose alternatives are cheaper & would not have violated Indigenous or Treaty rights. #SiteC #bcpoli

..What is not included in these photos from #SiteC are the more intangible traces of contemporary sacred places, places which, until they were recently destroyed, were still in use by First Nations in the Peace Valley. No more should be destroyed. #bcpoli https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/british-columbia/site-c/article26154330/">https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/brit...
