The ability to govern is in the heart of any nation. All it takes is one successfully negotiated treaty, with all the "bricks" in place - to set into reality the countless hours of meetings, the frustrations, the set-backs, and the challenges of treaty negotiations. To replace the previous method of governance structures within our communities under the Indian Act, is an enormous undertaking. We are limited by the Indian Act to exercise governance but we are evolving, and adapting, and the process is slow. We will continue to grow and change to meet these challenges. We must persevere in process of rebuilding our Nation.

All Kitselas Membership will be consulted and informed in all aspects of the treaty. The decisions made will be made in the best interests of our people, our land, our resources, our culture, our language, and our future - our future is with our children.
