The official, government-recognized representative of the province's Metis--the Metis Nation British Columbia (MNBC)--signed a deal with Enbridge last year, to the chagrin of its rival, BCMF, which formed in 2011.
He said that BCMF canvassed Metis communities through surveys and online forums and found opposition to the Northern Gateway.
Sundance Chief Rueben George, of Tsleil Waututh Nation, celebrated the addition of both BCMF and the Tahltan nation to the Save the Fraser Declaration.
