Skeena Cellulose vice- president and in-house counsel John Sparks said ihe B.C. Supreme Court justice hearing the case indicated a ruling will likely come down in late November or early De- cember. The latest challenge, filed by the Gitanyow chiefs, joined earlier chal- lenges by the Gitxsan and the Lax Kw’alaams band | near Prince Rupert. The Gitanyow argue they were not adequately consulted by the province in the transfer of Skeena ° Cellulose. They're citing recent Soe cour! decisions that state the Haida were inadquate- ly consulted in the transfer of forest licences on the Queen Charlotte Islands. SCI’s new owners argue there was no licence trans- fer to a different company, but rather a change of ow-.. nership. Gitanyow chief negotia-- tor Glen Williams says the province also continues to inadequately consult on the sale of small business forest licences in their ter- ritory. with Congenital oteinert's disease Will die shortly : afterbirth. 1 800 567-CURE 7 puseuan aystraphy “> Assatiatin of Barada ~~ Untithere'sacure,there'sus: Northwest Smile Design Center Oe FA.
