    Hi everyone,

    November 7 6 pm - 8 pm - Gibralter Room November 8 10 am – 12 pm – Gibralter Room Noveber 8 @ 4 pm – 6 pm – Alexis Creek Community Hall

    Chief Marilyn Baptiste of the Xeni Gwet’in will be attending with the Xeni Gwet’in Elders to make their presence known to all that attend the Forum. They will sing and drum. They will also be present to answer any questions that people have on their points of view why Teztan (Fish Lake) will not be used in the plans for the Prosposed Prosperity Project.

    The Tsilhqot’in are strongly opposed to the destruction of Teztan and are prepared to make this point known. We are asking the support of everyone to attend each of these forums. The Xeni Gwet’in will be attending all 3 of the time alloted Open Houses for the project.

    Come and join us!

    Please forward this email to everyone on your email list and please pass on this information to your elders and friends who do not have email…..

    Sechanelyagh!
