Smashing the Status Quo
My combination of education and experience, as
a lawyer, Chief and advocate for First Nations
across the province, puts me in a unique position
to serve as Regional Chief of the BCAFN to work
to achieve these goals for our peoples.
We must act collectively as First Nations across
the province to break the back of the unjust status
quo of government—both federal and provincial.
