Jarvis pressures Victoria
for local land commitment
in new treaty negetiations

PROPERTY OWNERS on
the North Shore need
assurances from the provin-
cial government that their
properties will not be up for
negotiations under Vic-
toria’s new Treaty Commis-
sion Act, North Van-

couver-Seymour Liberal
.MLA Daniel Jarvis has
said.

The legislation sets up the B.C.

Treaty Commission, made up of
federal, provincial and aboriginal
governments, to oversee the
negotiations of modern-day
treaties with First Nations in B.C.
. “It is my intention to seek from
the government a commitment
that lands involving fee simple ti-
tle of- 1ion-aboriginal lands will
not be on the negotiating table,’
said Jarvis.

“The government must explain
what land is up for negotiation so
the residents of the North Shore

can rest easy that their property is
not affected by this legislation."’

Jarvis said he agrees in principle
with the process of negotiating
modern-day treaties, and feels the
establishment of the treaty comt-
mission is timely for all residents
of the province.

But he added that investors are
seeking a resolution to the issue of
land claims so they can invest in
B.C. with confidence that their
investment will not be affected by

. &@ process which has not been ade-
- quately dealt with for well over

100 years.

“There has been no clarification
by the Harcourt government
where it stands or who will have
jurisdiction over the lands in
question. These are probably the
most imporiant questions at this
time,” said Jarvis.

He added the establishment of a
process to resolve the land claims
issue for good is an enormous step
to creating social harmony
throughout B.C.
