With all the recent news about killing or reviving the treaty process it makes you wonder what the Mayans might think. Are we at the end of times? Today, Oct 28, 2011 is the end of the Mayan Calendar leading some to prophesize the end of our world. However, others claim "..this date is important as an evolutionary leap in the global consciousness, not as an omen of the end of life on earth."
Is the sun setting or rising on the BC Treaty Process?
The Mayan Calendar tracks long cycles of planetary movement. The alignment of celestial bodies could explain phenomena on earth. However, we don't need to look up to answer the question regarding the waxing or waning of the treaty process. The answer depends on the alignment of interests between BC, Canada, and the First Nation party to negotiations. As reported here, no fish is a problem but one or two tables can close deals. Can BC and Canada produce results before public pressure eclipses hope for treaties?
If the sun rises tomorrow we'll know we're on our way to a new global consciousness, we should plan accordingly. Send Ministers Duncan and Polak an email and tell them to get on with treaty making and Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween, from BC Treaty News.
