      <title>The $10,000 Vote: How Skeena Gold Bought Indigenous Consent at Eskay Creek</title>

      <description><![CDATA[
        In December 2025, Tahltan Nation members received approximately $10,000 each from a $40 million upfront payment by Skeena Gold &amp; Silver — days before they voted to approve the Eskay Creek mine restart. The vote passed. Now ask yourself: is consent that's purchased days before the ballot truly "free, prior, and informed"? BC's DRIPA legislation enshrines FPIC as a legal right. The Eskay Creek vote may be the first test of whether that right means anything at all. This is now the template. Every resource company in BC is watching.

        Stewart Phillip has led the Union of BC Indian Chiefs since 1998. His wife Joan Phillip is an NDP MLA and Parliamentary Secretary. His government-funded organization helped write DRIPA — the law her government enforces. UBCIC celebrated her election and said it "looks forward to working with her." No recusal on record. In any other sector, this would be a front-page scandal.

        BC posted a -0.4% population decline in Q4 2025 — the worst in Canada. Alberta gained +0.1% for the 14th consecutive quarter leading interprovincial migration. 900,000+ BCers have no family doctor. Tech workers are leaving Vancouver for Seattle to escape a 53.5% combined tax rate. The Employer Health Tax is killing small businesses. Young families can't afford BC housing and are moving to Alberta and Ontario. The NDP's response: silence. You can't tax your way to prosperity. BC is learning that the hard way.
