	Alberta West Country - Nisga'a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park
		For this loss of lives and villages, the Nisgaa Lava Bed Provincial Park was formed to remember this tragedy.
		Further down the Nisgaa’s Memorial Highway, at the end of the newly made road lies the small coastal community of Kincolith.
		The Nisgaa’s Lava Bed Provincial Park is located about 80km north or Terrace, B.C. on a newly paved road that all types of vehicles can travel.

	at - B.C. Referendum on Land Claims (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Campbell challenged the Nisga’a Treaty claiming the legislative power the Nisga’a Lisims Government received was inconsistent with Sections 91 and 92 of the Constitution Act of 1867 that divided legislative power between the federal government and the provinces.
		Thus, the Nisga’a government, subject as it is to both the limitations set out in the treaty itself and to the limited guarantee of s.
		Apparently frustrated by the courts in his attempts to abrogate the Nisga’a Treaty self-government agreements and motivated by his refusal to recognize Aboriginal self-government, Campbell decided to bring the matter before the BC voters through the referendum.

		In 14 chapters, The World Is Our Witness tells the history of the Nisga'a, their culture and aspirations, the complex consultations and negotiations, the areas and issues involved in making the Nisga'a Treaty, the political twists and turns of countering opposition, and the final ratification of the agreement by the parties.
		Making the Nisga'a Treaty was a dizzying, demanding, exhausting enterprise in which all parties involved had to be consulted, consulted and consulted again.
		Nisga'a Chief Joe Gosnell fittingly is given the last word in The World Is Our Witness: "The Royal Assent of our treaty signifies the end of the colonial era for the Nisga'a people.

	Feature Article
		Gosnell, senior Nisgaa negotiator in Terrace, says only that the figure was "less than 10%" of 22,000 square kilometres that the band sought in its original land claim.
		Moreover, the lower timber valuation will paradoxically entail an increase in not only the amount of potential funding that the Nisgaa can solicit from FRBC but also in the "own source" revenue-deficit that can be claimed by the proposed Nisgaa Central Government—obliging governments to increase their share of funding for self-government even further.
		FRBC CEO Lee Doney says the Nisgaa already receive $1.5 million to $2 million a year in restoration funding, and that such funding is expected to continue after the treaty is ratified.

		Berger met Frank Calder—a Nisga’a man first elected to the legislature in 1949 as the first First Nations person in Canada to hold elective office in any provincial legislature—when he was elected to B.C.’s Legislative Assembly in 1966.
		Calder, on behalf of the Nisga’a people, approached Berger to help him establish the existence of Aboriginal title of the Nisga’a people, a nation located approximately 120 km north east of Prince Rupert in the north western British Columbia Nass River Valley.
		Joseph Gosnell Sr., president of the Nisga’a Lisims Government, has watched the impact of the Calder case and the Nisga’a Treaty—which came into force on May 11, 2000 and was not negotiated by Berger—transform his community’s daily life.

		The Calder Case (after Nisga’a chief Frank Arthur Calder) went all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, where it met a split decision.
		It is a significant landmark in the century-long struggle by the Nisga’a for recognition of their title over the Nass River Valley.
		With the Delgamuukw Decision, the Nisga’a were a significant step closer to the Nisga’a Final Agreement.

		It is located on the Nass Forest Service road that cuts diagonally from Terrace to the Cassiar Highway, and is protected as the Nisga'a Memorial Lava Bed Park, managed jointly by the Nisga'a and BC Parks.
		The eruption that created the flow seems to have been of the effusive Hawaiian type, where lava simply flows out of the earth with few pyrotechnics.
		This may explain why as many as 2000 of the Nisga'a in two villages perished in the eruption.

		The idea for the gathering came out of a suicide prevention forum held last May in Prince Rupert, where government officials sought input from First Nations youth on how to counter the devastating trend of suicides on reserves.
		The Old Massett youth group spent their entire travel budget back in July, said Ms Williams, traveling around to the communities to invite them to the gathering.
		They requested permission to enter Tsimshian and Nisgaa territory in the traditional way, and then gave them official Haida-style invitations to the islands.

		In January, Attorney General Ujjal Dosanjh agreed during debate in the Legislature that the Nisgaa treaty does not even establish the final dimensions of Nisgaa Lands (the territory in which the Nisgaa will have crown-like ownership).
