The First Nation has given notice that residents at the Queneesh Mobile Home park have less than two years to move off the property. Many considered them their forever homes. With the high cost of moving a trailer and extremely limited places to legally move them, the residents say they deserve better. “There’s no place to move our trailers to on the Island. We are stuck. We have put our life savings into this trailer, and now we have to leave with nothing. That is ludicrous,” said Kathy Jenkins, a park resident of 34 years.
