Rights and reconciliation collide in B.C.

Front Burner

About this episode

A conflict playing out in British Columbia is testing the limits of reconciliation in the province. It’s a fight that involves resource extraction, democracy, political flip-flops, and a test of values. It has set off fears that people may not own their homes and raised the legal prospect that Indigenous groups could veto laws around resource extraction. Others have called this fearmongering, and it has many Indigenous people and leaders asking if the province takes reconciliation seriously. 


Rob Shaw, who covers politics for CHEK News and Glacier Media, walks us through how we got here.
