Native chiefs continue their sit-in at Premier Christy Clark's West Kelowna office – and say they're prepared to stay put through the weekend.
The four chiefs and elders from Nicola Valley First Nations are protesting the shipment of sewage sludge from the Central Okanagan and elsewhere in B.C. to a composting facility near Merritt.
Their occupation of Clark's constituency office began on Wednesday.
Chief Aaron Sam of the Lower Nicola Indian Band said Friday morning that "not much has happened."
"We're still here," he said. "We slept here again last night. There's been no more communication, but we're hoping to resolve the matter today."
