------------------------
More info:

Members of the Luutkudziiwus house of the Gitxsan nation have created a permanent camp on their territory to prevent fracked gas pipelines from being constructed and to maintain autonomy over their land and their lives. TransCanada Corporation hopes to begin construction of a fracked gas pipeline as soon as January 2015 right through Luutkudziiwus territory.

From the camp's website:
"There will be direct and indirect impacts to Luutkudziiwus rights and title from potential adverse effects to fish and their habitats, wildlife and their habitats, terrestrial and aquatic resources, including cumulative effects, as well as to social, cultural, and economic values. As well, the pipe will be supplying the proposed LNG plant in Skeena estuary, where substantial and potentially catastrophic impacts are predicted to negatively affect our juvenile salmon. The proposed PRGT pipeline project is in deep conflict with core Luutkudziiwus interests and values."
