One small First Nation on British Columbia’s West Coast is taking big steps to claim rightful power over its forests, rivers and shores in a land still rich with fish, bears, old-growth trees and kelp forests by reviving their stories and the laws within them. But after immense loss, and with ever-dwindling resources, will the Kitasoo Xai’xais people be able to assert their laws in time to protect what they have left?
