  2. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    This is a very narrow approach in that it’s very clear that nothing in the agreement or in the treaty affects navigation. It’s clear that if, whether you be a stand-up paddleboarder or a kayaker or a sailboat or whatever…

  3. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    It’s a bit technical, so if the member is okay, I’ll refer him, since it is a publicly available document, to appendix O-1, paragraphs 16 to 18. It goes through the formula around how expropriation would be done and how…

  4. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    In the “Lands” chapter, it talks about that specifically. Paragraph 87 says: “K’ómoks is responsible for the preparation of any adequate surveys required for the addition of pre-approved addition lands to K’ómoks lands u…

  5. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    Some of the land currently is owned by a corporation owned by the K’ómoks Nation. The land will be…. Some of that would maintain that, but the other parts of the land would be owned by the K’ómoks Nation. They haven’t d…

  6. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    The answer is that, yes, K’ómoks would be able to sell land that is part of their treaty land. The member said “to any person.” Any person that would be eligible to buy land in B.C. would be able to purchase that land.…

  7. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    The principle around who pays for which parcel is that the party that currently owns that parcel pays for the survey of that parcel. Provincial Crown would be us. Federal land would be them of course. And then K’ómoks la…

  8. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    Of course, it’s not just water for moving around and boating in, but likely a dock would be built there. Obviously, if a dock is there, somebody else can’t use that area. They may want to ensure exclusive access use for…

  9. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)

    Getting those surveys done is a competitive process. I don’t want to give the member a figure and then in estimates, in a year or two years from now, have him say: “Well, you promised it would be this amount, and it’s ac…

  10. Committee of the Whole — Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act (continued)
