I believe so.

In regard to the treaties and the people who signed on to treaties, I believe they have. With us, we are unceded territory. We have an aboriginal title claim in place, and I believe they understood that as well when they were talking to us, and that we weren't going to back down. We were all set to put cabins out in the middle of those sites and not let them drill.
