Finding Our Way
This video examines the struggles of two First Nations in the Carrier territory in British Columbia. In The Contagion of Colonisation, viewers will learn the historical context behind the First Nations groups circumstances. High Noon in Burns Lake focuses on the Ts'il Kaz Koh First Nation (Burns Lake Band). The Band has been in conflict with the village of Burns Lake over appropriated land. In 2000, the municipality shut off water and sewage services to the Reserve. Cheslatta Carrier Nation's story is told in Keeping Our Heads Above Water. In 1952, Alcan's hydroelectric project evicts people from their homeland. Today, the First Nation is struggling economically and culturally.
