Tolko’s B.C. Supreme Court order, aimed at removing the Native roadblock that’s barring passage to its cut block, has yet to amount to much.

Soo , What the Indian band is saying is that they haven’t received any money out of this deal, so we will put up a road block.(lol) Why don’t us Caucasian people put a road block up on the city side of the bridge and stop them from crossing.

It is because of the weakness, of the federal and provincial governments. And the fact that the RCMP are very reluctant to withhold up court orders when natives are involved……..we have this problem…….
the great Spirit needs money and I got a feeling the logging companies will have to supply it…….

Ignorance really is bliss not isn’t it? Simplistic answers to complex questions are never a solution so you two…keep mining your mud puddle for the little gems of bigotry (look it up). The Okanagan Valley is a dry land belt region susceptible to low rainfall and drought. we had 56 forestry workers, by 1989 we were down to 9. So ya we had a job!!! but were thrown out of the sector by the likes of TOLKO and other companies.
Too replace these losses water is key to our future in terms of development and the ability to develop our lands. Besides why is it that every other community in this province has direct benefit of protection of their water supplies except communities that are predominately First Nations? On the westside of Okanagan Lake communities less then half the size as our community have community watershed designation along with every other non-native community in the province. Systematic institutionalized racism perhaps or good ole fashioned corporation greed.You choose
So you two keep your small minded ignorant and bigoted diatribes after all it appears you’ve reached the highest levels of your intellect.
Oh boy…you two got me now!!!

Abide by the laws of Canada……and obey the courts and laws of Canada………
When you do, I will show you the respect you think you deserve….

BLouis .. the watershed is being protected by the environmental agenda put forth by the government……
I always find it comical, when people try to put forth an argument that for some reason the native people have some great grasp Of the watershed and the environment…..if you have any fight at all, it’s with the developers that have basically overbuilt the valley…………..all I see, are people that believe they’re above the law ,because they believe they have some sort of spiritual superiority……..

I’m in Vancouver gravedigger what makes you think i have to get physically violent when i’m not even in Kelowna?Shows your not a part of the source so your words are meaningless to me.Another thing that is indian land they have set up the blockade is it not which means it is not against the law.But what of the laws of nature and God??hmm?mans law does not supercede that of mother natures law natures law supercededs that of mans.I wish for no respect from you i don’t know you and thankfully never will.I AM speaking of such violence as Oka the murder of Dudley George and what happened in Caladonea.No violence against my people not us to you but you to us old man.

Grumpydigger you really aren’t putting it on, you truly are ignorant. Its about fundamental rights that are recognized under international as a human right. It is about water and the protection of water. I don’t think you ever stepped out your backyard to even have an inkling of how important water is to this valley. Developers are only one part of a future looming problem, the other is the conservation and protection of what remains. It isn’t about us it’s about all of you
You want to know how bad it can get look to Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, but then again…you don’t have too. After all…you know it all. As for Spirituality it wouldn’t hurt you to find a little yourself, because you’re definitely in deficit in those regards now aren’t you.
Murphy once said said, “never argue with an idiot, people might not be able to tell the difference”
I’m going stop because I think I’ve just crossed that line

A reminder that the Provincial government is acting under presumed jurisdition, I or no other leader in the Okanakan has ever handed over jurisdiction to anyone, we continue to “use and occupy” all of our “tim-who-lough” (land)Tolko is a third party trespasser operating under the Provinces (sic) presumed jurisdiction and should be charged with trespass….
