A national court competition focused on Indigenous issues and the Coastal GasLink Pipeline
Northern British Columbian residents participated in the 2023 Kawaskimhon Moot, a court competition that has participants from nearly every law school in Canada.
It is consensus-based and non-adversarial and this year focused on the legal issues surrounding the Coastal GasLink pipeline. Coach Murry Shotly is a former UNBC student from Hagwilget Village and a long-time Fort Fraser Resident and coach Chrystie Stewart is from Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc. Numerous issues were raised in the moot such as does the Wet’suwet’en have land title over the lands claimed by the hereditary chiefs and what rights do Wet’suwet’en people have under the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
