First Nation in B.C. sues port firm, governments for allegedly disrupting ancestral remains

The Bonaparte First Nation is suing the British Columbia and federal governments and the company behind a railway terminal port in the province’s southern Interior, claiming it wasn’t properly consulted about the project and that its construction activities have disturbed the remains and other culturally significant artifacts on the site of their historical village. The First Nation claims the provincial and federal governments failed to adequately consult them about the project, which has received millions in subsidies since development plans were unveiled back in 2006.
