RE:Saturday morning... The Tahltan Central Government says they will be taking steps to stop Doubleview Gold Corp. operations on their unceded lands.
In a phone interview with APTN, Chad Norman Day explained the importance of the Sheslay area.
“This area has always been sacred to Tahltan people; our ancestors are buried out there. We have many Tahltan elders today that were born and raised in that area,” he said.
“It’s an area in our oral history that was very important in times of flooding; the story I heard is there may not have been a Tahltan Nation if it wasn’t for the Sheslay Mountain and diverse wildlife in that area during difficult times.”
