(Ben Nelms/CBC)In the wake of a white nationalist gathering on the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc reserve, near Kamloops, B. C., the First Nation says it has implemented a new tool to help prevent similar future incidents. Acting Kúkpi7 (Chief) Nikki Fraser said the Tk'emlúps council unanimously passed a “zero tolerance for hate-based conduct” resolution on Tuesday.

During two events this week, people came together to support survivors and their families in the wake of masked denialists demonstrating on the reserve: ‘They don’t win, and they’re not going to’ At the same site where a white nationalist demonstration occurred in Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc on Sunday, more than 100 Secwépemc people and their allies returned to the area two days later to reclaim the space. They drummed, sang and prayed to cleanse the spot, which is located a few hundred metres away from the former Kamloops Indian Residential School. Photo by Aaron Hemens
