TERRACE - = The Tsimshian

will fight ‘Orenda Forest Pro-
ducts’ plan to build a $365.

million groundwood pulp and

paper mill south of Lakelse

Lake.

Tsimshian _ Tribal Council

president Art Sterritt says its

the lake falls within their land
claim area. ~

“Tf they think they can ram-
rod this thing through, they’re |
