Due to recent loss in our Ktunaxa communities, this event has been cancelled.

We will be taking a different approach to engagement for the Lot 48 prescribed burn. Instead of an in-person session, citizens are invited to connect directly with the project lead to ask questions and share feedback. Project information will also be available on the Hakqyit site.

For more information or to get in touch, please contact [email protected].

We’re hosting a Ktunaxa-only Zoom info session for the Fording River Extension (FRX) Project (Elk Valley Resources / EVR, formerly Teck). The project has now entered the provincial and federal environmental assessment process, so this is a good chance to hear what’s been shared so far and ask questions.

🗓️ Tuesday, February 3, 2026
🕕 6:00–8:00 PM
📍 Zoom (link sent after you sign up)

This session is for Ktunaxa citizens to:
• hear an overview of the FRX Project from EVR
• learn about potential impacts being discussed so far
• ask questions and share concerns

To get the Zoom link + info package, please email:
