The Supreme Court of Canada will decide whether to hear a British Columbia appeal related to a mineral claims case. The case intersects with B.C.'s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, passed in November 2019, which enshrines the UN declaration on Indigenous rights as the province's framework for reconciliation. The outcome could have significant implications for how Indigenous rights are balanced against resource extraction in B.C. and potentially across Canada.

Scientists say this cocktail of contaminants poses a significant risk to the already vulnerable chinook salmon population.
B.C.'s chinook salmon are swimming through a chemical soup — and a landmark study says it's putting them at risk.
