It's important for the people of the world to know that we are an independent tribe in the interior of the province recently named 'british columbia.' At no point did the british conquer or seize our lands by means of treaty, war, or agreement. We have cared for these lands since Creation and we will defend it for the rest of time. If you must visit here please respect the land, water and people. The reason it is beautiful here is because the Statimc people and the surrounding tribes fought fiercely to protect the area from destruction and illegal land sales.
