Re: Information on Hwy 37 Road Blockades
They negotiated with the province, got easy access areas put on restrictions or LEH for everyone but them. They got what they wanted, now they want more.
If l block access to crown land, the cops will come and figure it out.
I’m very biased cause I’ve got an LEH bull in the Klappan, moose draws don’t come along that often......

TAHLTAN NATION ANNOUNCE TRAVEL ADVISORY FOR TAHLTAN TERRITORYToday(July 30, 2020),
the Tahltan Nation announced that everyone, including hunters and wildlife enthusiasts, should avoid non essential
travel to Tahltan Territory until the Province safely enters Stage 4 of the COVID-19 response. The consequence of
spreading COVID-19 is too great given the limited access to acute medical care for residents along the remote Highway 37
corridor.
All non-essential travel to Dease Lake, Iskut and Telegraph Creek should be avoided, and all recreational activity
is strongly discouraged north ofBob Quinn, including hunting regions 6-19to 6-26.Hunting and recreational activity access
points, including the Stikine Bridge, will be blocked with gates, and monitored, including video surveillance. The Tahltan
Central Government’s Wildlife Department and our Guardians will be patrolling Tahltan Territory and asking all visitors to
follow appropriate procedures or leave if they choose to ignore this travel advisory. The RCMP is cooperating and the
Tahltan Nation is working with the Province to get additional RCMP and Conservation officer support.Dr. Bonnie Henry’s
has consistently stated that First Nation communities have a larger degree of risk and loss that could happen if the virus
was introduced and she has consistently stated that she would leave it up to First Nation communities to decide if it is
safe to travel to those comunites.
Among Dr. Bonnie Henry’s Travel Manners announced on July 7, she states: Before travelling,
check on whether there are travel advisories in place for transportation routes and recreational sites, and be sure the community
you want to visit is open to visitors.COVID-19 poses significant safety concerns in many Indigenous and rural communities.
Remote Indigenous communities across northern BC, such as Dease Lake, Iskut and Telegraph Creek in Tahltan Territory,
are particularly vulnerable to widespread COVID-19 outbreak due to their highly social culture, limited access to timely
testing, limited medical services, and access to and timely transport of patients needing critical care. Historically pandemics
have had a devastating toll on Indigenous peoples in BC and COVID-19 has heightened sensitivities in Tahltan Territory
and many Indigenous communities across BC
