| Abstract | The article focuses on an agreement between the Ahousaht, Nuu-chah-nulth Indians of British Columbia (BC), and BC-based fishing company Pacific National Aquaculture, which allowed the later to use Traditional Ecological Knowledge of the Indians to practice salmon farming at Clayoquot Sound, Vancouver Island. The Indians had been concerned about the impact of salmon farms on their local environment. However, they agreed to the presence of salmons farm in exchange for the recognition of their hereditary chief and their territory. |
