Abstract:
The Songhees First Nation has an ally in the City of Victoria as it enters into land-claims negotiations with the province for three sites in the city, including a pair of high-profile parking lots with a combined value of nearly $50 million. On Friday, the city cemented its support for the First Nation with a formal letter supporting the Songhees in negotiations with the province and indicating it was behind the nation in its quest to acquire the three parcels.
