The flowing is an excerpt from the Klahowya News by Mark Kiemele:
The old tree farm license TFL 10 was converted to one of the largest community forest agreements (CFA) in BC late last year.
And Chief Ken Brown was clear about what the 230,000 hectares around Toba Inlet meant for Klahoose First Nation in the years ahead.
“This is a major achievement for us as a community,” he said. “Converting TFL 10 allows us to utilize our own resources in the Toba Valley again for our sole benefit after years of others benefiting from what was rightfully ours for more than 20 years.”
