Treaty Rights & Environmental Protection

Our main priority is to correspond and interact with community members, industry sectors, ministry and government agencies regarding our collective Treaty 8 Rights to ensure that meaningful consultation is achieved when reviewing resource development projects.

Our goal is to ensure the Nation has a clear understanding of the impacts to our treaty rights as guaranteed under the Constitution section 35.

Some services that involve community input and participation to help gather local knowledge would include:

  • Community Moose Meetings
  • Caribou Penning Projects
  • Community Scoping Meetings
  • Lichen picking Excursions
  • Berry Picking Excursions
