Two more Catholic churches burn down on Indigenous land in BC Interior

Two more Catholic churches on Indigenous land in B.C.’s Interior burned to the ground early Saturday morning. The latest were located on reserves in the Similkameen Valley, and come just days after two Catholic churches burned down on Indigenous land in the southern Okanagan. Chief Keith Crow, of the Lower Similkameen Indian Band, said St. Ann’s Church on the Chuchuwayha reserve in Hedley and the Lower Similkameen Indian Band church, the Chopaka Church, were destroyed by fire at about 4 a.m. He said the fires were suspicious and “possibly” linked to the other two in the Okanagan.
