The Blockaders of the Ksi Lisims LNG
Professional Obstructionism & Obstructionists
“Before we even talk about who they are, its of critical importance to point out the Gitanyow Chiefs and or including any other Gitxsan Chiefs have invaded lands that belong to the Nisg̱a’a Lisims Government. This is not a case of unceded territory, its land that has already been negotiated between the Nisg̱a’a Lisims Government and the governments of British Columbia and Canada”.
Gitanyow is yet another product of cancel culture, and a total disrespect to the elders of the past. The real and rightful name is Kitwankul, the Kitwankul National Historic Site of Canada is located near the confluence of Kitwankul Creek and the Kitwanka River, in Kitwankul Indian Reserve 1, within the village of Kitwankul. It was the site of a traditional Tsimshian village, featuring houses with traditionally painted exteriors, and monumental art, much of which dated from the mid-to-late 19th century. At the time of designation there were architectural remains including the footprints of buildings, approximately 20 original totem poles, and a cemetery, standing along a main road. Official recognition refers to the site at the time of designation.
From history we know this was never a Gitxsan Reserve, but it comes as no surprise that the so called Gitanyow Chiefs are now claiming the land as theirs.
There is a very powerful group of people in the Kispiox Valley, funded by Americans, so much so its become a very lucrative occupation to actively disrupt any industry in the region, the group was created by a former logger, that needed industry out as it conflicted with his guiding and Heli Skiing business, to host rich Americans at rates that far exceed a thousand dollars a day per client. This brought about a coalition with the Nagata family and Kia’s connection to Dogwood B.C. and the local organization called SWCC. aka as Skeena Watershed Conservation Coalition. It’s also important to note the powerful connection between the Gitanyow Chiefs, the illegal blockade on the Cranberry Connector on land that belongs to the Nisg̱a’a Lisims Government.
Last but certainty not least is a media created misconception, of what it means to be a Hereditary Chief.
Historically speaking, only those men or women who were beyond reproach and were of sold good character could hold the title of Hereditary Chief. Definitely not someone with a criminal record.
We strongly believe that there is a direct connection between all the acts of terrorism that took place during the construction of the CGL Pipeline, the “RCMP investigate alleged attack on Coastal GasLink pipeline worksite in B.C.” and then “September 26th 2024 four vehicles were severely damaged as well as buildings nearby in an arson attack in Terrace BC. then again in Smithers “Smithers RCMP investigate suspicious vehicle fires” then a 5th incident, an attack on their own people, “Four Gitxsan Development Corporation owned vehicles burned in possible arson case” all intended to intimidate legitimate businesses from working on an environmentally approved project.
“WE “strongly believe” the same people behind these domestic terrorist attacks are involved in one way or another, directly or indirectly to the Skeena Watershed Conservation Coalition. There is no evidence to support our beliefs, but when you talk to people from our region, they feel that a lack of evidence to convict, does not constitute innocence, or guilt, but when you look at the people opposed to this PRGT pipeline, the number of people really is a very loud and aggressive, but “small group.”
The Skeena Watershed Conservation Coalition is directly connected to all the secondary organizations, including the Kispiox Reserve, the Community Association, and Lax’yip Firekeepers who are almost all adults pretending to be youth supporters.
Then oddly (seriously?) all these are posted on a radical, anarchist website as observations of opposition to pipeline projects.” Again we cannot prove it, but few people will disagree its bragging rights by those who did it.
In that light we intend to remove the mystic, and show you the real people behind the cloak and mask. We do believe there are good elders, good chiefs, and even good Hereditary Chiefs, but the title does not make people good or evil, they bring this on themselves. The second point is that not all the blockaders are aboriginal, there are those who fund and participate with the blockaders, who are funded by Oil, Gas and Mining industry (also known as their resource sector) in the USA to remove Canada as a competitor. These hide under various labels we call them Top Level Interference Click on that link to see their names.
