Those requirements, Jack said, are based on three sacred Huu-ay-aht principles: Êiisaak, which means utmost respect, ÊuuÊaÅuk, which has to do with taking care in terms of business and elected government and care for present and future generations, and HiÅ¡uk ma cÌawak, which means everything is connected. It s the idea that in both the human world and the natural world, there are a myriad of relationships that are interconnected, interdependent and reciprocal, and that while we may not completely understand and comprehend all of those connections, we should actively appreciate them, Jack explained. People who violate our sacred principles are not welcome in our hÌ£ahuuÅi, said Huu-ay-aht Tayii ḤawÌiÅ ÆiiÅ¡in (Head Hereditary Chief Derek Peters).Â

A video recorded by the Rainforest Flying Squad showed the contracted forestry workers yelling racial slurs and acting aggressively toward the camped activists. One Indigenous protester had his phone slapped out of his hands and was allegedly roughed up, receiving minor cuts and ripped clothing. TFL 44, which covers 137,000 hectares and contains 780,000 cubic metres of allowable cut, is jointly owned by Huumiis Ventures, a forestry company owned by the Huu-ay-aht First Nations, and Western Forest Products.

The acquisition plan would bump ownership up to 35% and give the Huu-ay-aht company three of the seven seats on the TFL 44 board with Western Forest Products. Huu-ay-aht councillor John Jack said the deal represents an investment of $22.4 million, and lays the groundwork for an eventual majority share to be considered in the first quarter of 2023. The next step of the investment is to acquire an additional 16%, he said. “If approved by our citizens, [it] would bring Huumiis’ interests up to 51%, giving it majority say into what happens in the tree farm licence on our traditional territory.”
