I haven't seen any link that supports that "80%" claim.

Since the BC Crown has not consulted with traditional Wet'suet'en Chiefs, I see no point in speculating about the outcome of talks that haven't taken place.

80% - a figure as put forward by the National Coalition of Chiefs... as highlighted by the FN LNG Alliance... as stated earlier and put forward in a linked graphic. I asked you to counter this figure. Apparently - you can't/won't. Rather, you relish this opportunity to posture an unsubstantiated claim around hereditary chiefs - a claim you attach to a SCOC ruling... one you have been asked to quote/link to within said ruling. You won't/apparently can't... you refuse to!

as I highlighted, as I read/interpret, only 5 of the 13 hereditary chiefs remain opposed to the CGL pipeline... notwithstanding the number of Wet'suet'en members is less than 3500 across the 5 respective clans. So, 5 hereditary chiefs and (accepting the 80% figure)... another 100 individuals (carrying the same 80% yes voting ratio to the, say... 500 voting eligible persons who didn't vote... 5 hereditary chiefs and 100 individuals (estimated) are holding Canada hostage!
