This is absolutely on brand for Ellis Ross. He was a known ____ when he was a BC Liberal MLA for the same area.
The BC Liberals were also well known for their boosting of the trophy hunting industry, so OF COURSE he's going to go to the local Rod and Gun club before he calls the Nation that was devastated by the Grizzly attack.
A good reminder that not all First Nation "leaders" are environmentally, or socially, conscious.
What an ass.

"To develop a more realistic picture of how bears crisscross their territory, Housty and other Heiltsuk stewards recently partnered with academics to construct their own model of bear navigation. Their tool, which is based on a technique borrowed from electrical engineering called circuit theory and has been adapted for use in landscape ecology, gives them a way to calculate the “least cost” pathways that the bears might take to navigate the complex and densely packed forest between salmon streams.

..i wonder? a white, genX, trans-masc non-binary punk anarchist from the netherlands, which sold NY for a dollar to the fucking brittish after murdering all #FirstNation ppl they found there & brought his ancestors over as slaves. my own family did the same thing to my sister, & they didn't even realise..

just discovered these g's #MitchellAimss & #Cashmere by watching #aimss attitude in #PeterSantenello's video about #CypressHills #TheBronx which reportedly is, i'm guessing, where #CypressHill come from. and they are one of my favourite artists ever, so that peaked my interest.
watch them talk first & then listen to their #music.
#GifsArtidote: he sounds like my kinda man, but how's his behaviour towards ppl like me, i wonder? a white, genX, trans-masc non-binary punk anarchist from the netherlands, which sold NY for a dollar to the fucking brittish after murdering all #FirstNation ppl they found there & brought his ancestors over as slaves. my own family did the same thing to my sister, & they didn't even realise.
maybe him & me can sort this shit out right now. what do you say aimss? or is #mastodon not in the hood?

Warming up & chatting with #HereditaryChief Sonny Wallas (David Hanuse), Chief Ye-kue-klas of [Gwat’sinuxw (Quatsino)] nation.
