What you need to know about the Coastal GasLink pipeline conflict
Dispute in Wet’suwet’en territory over natural gas line has high economic and political stakes

The conflict over a natural gas pipeline in northwestern British Columbia is the latest flashpoint between resource development and Indigenous rights and title in a province where large swaths of territory are not covered by any treaty.
