We should be supporting the people who do want peace those who want to enjoy their neighbors and who believe the Jews Muslims and Christians are all brothers in faith and tied to the land. According to the shared scripture, they are all the sons and daughters of Abraham.

“We have always upheld our inherent title to Haida Gwaii and surrounding waters in the face of resistance from Crown governments. But today, with recognition of our title to Haida Gwaii — in provincial law — we take another step toward peaceful coexistence with British Columbia. Once this legislation is passed we can work toward implementing our vision for Haida Gwaii without conflict, based on yahguudang/yahgudáng respect,” Gaagwiis said. “For years, we’ve envisioned and worked towards re-establishing an economy that aligns with our values and traditions — one that sustains rather than exploits the land and sea. We can now take hold of that vision and create a future where the land and sea will nurture us for generations to come. B.C.’s leadership and commitment to making things right after over 150 years of denial is an honourable act.”
