Projects
In the process of treaty negotiations, a great deal of research has been carried out by the Hul'qumi'num Treaty Group. Though much of the research remains "confidential" subject to treaty negotiations, many of the products of these projects can be shared with all. Below are links to many of the significant projects done by HTG.
