On Friday January 11th 10 First Nations communities gathered at the Quesnel Seniors Centre to sign a letter of understanding. The letter of understanding is to realize that all nations have to work together in order to truly gain a step up in today’s age. A commitment to work together and resolve their boundary issues.
The 10 First Nations signers were from the Tsideldel, Xeni Gwet’in, Yunesit’in, tl’etinqox, tl’esqox, ?Esdilagh, Lhtako, Nazko, Ulgatcho and kluskas Nations.
