SKEENA MP Mike Scott spent two terms fighting a losing battle against the Nisga’a treaty to the exclusion of almost everything else, says Nisga’a Nation pre- sident Joe Gesnell. “What has Mike Scott achieved pasit- ively for the Skeena constituents?” Gos- nell asked last week, “The answer, quite frankly, is nothing. Zero. Zilch.” Gosnell made the comments after Scott announced he wouldn’t be running in the next federal election. Gosnell said Scott cpposed the treaty vigorously during negotiations between the Nisga’a and the federal and provincial . governments and continued to do so right up to the time’ it was ratified. got passed by the provincial legislature and the Canadian Parliament and is now law,” Gosnell said. “He was like a man standing in front of the ocean trying to stop the lide from coming in. The tide rolled right over him.” : Native people, the Nisga’a in particu- lar, felt they went unrepresented during the Scott years. Native voters also shied away from him at the polls. Official Nisga’a contact with Scolt was limited to a televised debate about the treaty and one half-hour meeting with him in Aiyansh in the first term. - “He called that consulting with our training services — eciriculum design eoffice applications 201 - 3240 Kalum St. ‘Terrace, BO V8G 2N4 www.webnorth.bc.ca e emerging technology e digital marketing Phone: 250.635.3748 Fax: 250.635.2705 info@webnorth.be.ca people,” Gosnell said. “The second term “His views didn’t stand up.
