Gitxsan Hereditary Chiefs Set Up LNG Blockade

In late August, a group of grassroots Gitxsan people contructed a permanent camp to oppose a frack gas pipeline that is proposed to run through their territory. (Gitxsan Territory lies adjacent to Wet’suwet’en territory)

Camp Madii Lii is located at the entrance to Luutkudziiwus territory, at 15 km on the Suskwa Forest Service Road, outside Hazelton.

The proposed Prince Rupert Gas Transmission (PRGT) pipeline would cross Luutkudziiwus territory for about 32 km from Suskwa Pass to the Shegunia River. Approximately one-half — 16 km — lies on top of the Babine Trail, the ancestral grease trail connecting Gitanmaax with Fort Babine. (more…)

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We are singing the Unist’ot’en song “Yinkak Honzu…” (This earth is beautiful)
