Environmental Assessment Process Review
This is a VERY IMPORTANT issue about decision making that directly affects our lands and our way of life. There will be 4 sessions this week!
The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) is a planning tool to predict environ-mental impacts and implement proper prevention measures to eliminate or reduce environ-mental effects. Projects are subjected to the environmental assessments at both the provincial and federal level. At the federal level environmental assessments are carried out on matters pertaining to federal legislation such as: fish and fish habitat; other aquatic species; migratory birds; federal lands; effects that cross provincial or international boundaries, and; effects that impact on Aboriginal peoples, such as their use of lands and resources for traditional purposes.
The CNA is participating in the review of the federal environmental assessment process (CEAA) and are inviting Nlaka’pamux community members to come to this session to learn more about CEAA learn about CNA’s proposed recommendations for change provide recommendations and insight into how environmental assessment can better integrate FN involvement, decision mak-ing, and proper identification of impacts to First Nations.
