The Wei Wai Kum Kwiakah Treaty Society (WKTS) is a non-profit society serving Wei Wai Kum and Kwiakah First Nations. WKTS’ mandate is to negotiate a draft Treaty to bring back to membership to review and vote on. Wei Wai Kum and Kwiakah joined together in 2014 to create WKTS to negotiate through the BC Treaty Process with the Province of BC and Canada.
The communities, Council and advisors guide our Treaty Team. WKTS’ goal is to advance the following principles through the BC Treaty Process:
- Recognize and protect aboriginal rights and title
- Return lands to the Nations
- Recognize our governance and jurisdiction
- Provide a solid foundation, land base, and economic base that provide a better future for our members

The Nations territories are located around the mainland coastal watersheds of Loughborough and Phillips Inlets in the proximity of Campbell River and the lands and waters of what is now called Vancouver Island.
