The Witsuwit'en are NOT considered part of a group called Babine. Rather, they and the Babine are sisters, for whom the only name currently considered acceptable is Babine-Witsuwit'en. Witsuwit'en people consider the idea that they are Babine offensive, and similarly Babine people do not consider themselves Witsuwit'en. It is therefore inaccurate to include Babine Lake and Takla Lake in Witsuwit'en territory as these are Babine. Bill 04:29, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
