On September 16th 2001, 40 to 50 Non-Native fisherman converge on the waters surrounding Burnt Church First Nations in a flotilla of fishing boats to protest.
Christian Peacemaker Team observer reports "One large non-Aboriginal boat tried to run over the small dory I was in. They threw beer bottles and cut buoys at us. Then we heard automatic gunfire and retreated to shore. Someone is going to get killed here. Please pray right now for an end to this violence."
