In 1984, a logging blockade led to the creation of the first Tribal Park near Tofino, British Columbia. Four decades later, the Tribal Parks Allies program is building a coalition of support for restoration among members of the tourism industry. The project brings in reliable funding for Indigenous-led sustainable projects and cultural revitalization. Saya Masso, Lands and Resource Director at Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation, explains the positive impact alongside a history lesson about those who have protected the forests.
