  • Good afternoon Avril. In preparation for our meeting tomorrow we have a number of questions we would like to discuss. For the purpose of the federal and provincial EAs our questions are issues and concerns.We require a response to our questions in writing.   Noront Studies, ShapeFiles and Lidar. In your letter of January 17, 2020, you report that: "Noront has agreed in principle to share all documents with Neskantaga that relate to the MFFN community access road EA. We would like to discuss and understand which reports you require and we can then get those reports to you from Noront.” The first studies we require are any and all archeological studies[likely the Cliffs stage 1 archaeological assessment of the proposed routes] that Noront holds. MFFN and Noront can communicate directly with Neskantaga’s cultural heritage advisor Dr. Scott Hamilton on the ...

  • Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Impact Assessment of the Webequie Supply Road Project and Impact Assessment of the Marten Falls Community Access Road Project.  The placement and intent of both these projects are predicated on an inevitable next phase or end-game that results in construction of a north-south or east-west all-weather access road to one or more potential mine locations within the Ring of Fire. Neither of these two projects can be adequately assessed independent of that context.  The true and consequential impacts will be the cumulative effects of the longer-term full road network and associated construction, maintenance, and subsequent use on a wide range of ecosystem functions.  A reqional environmental assessment is essential to anticipating long term effects at an adequate scale to protect economic, social and environmental interests.

  • Good morning. I would like to extend my opinion of support for the Martin Falls Community Access Road. This road will allow the residents of the community benefits that many people in urban areas take for granted. It is a holistic solution to the region and will facilitate positive changes. With climate change being a real thing, a winter road is not sustainable, nor is air freight. Now for the urban people, look at a mattress for your home. You are at the store with your family looking at furniture for your home, (possible 2 people or more). To get to a town or city, you took a seasonal road or airplane. That costs alone several hundreds if not thousands of dollars itself. This is for shopping or appointments, not a vacation to a warm place for a week.  Now look at the good that you have purchased, you now have limited space on the plane or vehicle to bring these things back to the community. Look at the cost to ...

  • 1 MLi3 Inc. Commentary on Marten Falls Community Access Road Draft EIA Guidelines 1. Overview The draft Guidelines are a good attempt to build a defensible form of EIA guidance to the proponent. They are very comprehensive. Notwithstanding the title, however, these “Tailored Guidelines” need substantial ‘tailoring’ to help the proponent create a clear, practical and defensible scope of assessment for the project. The draft Guidelines reflect a very significant effort to display consideration of Indigenous culture, value systems and sensitivities. That said, the guidance’s reliance on listing of subject matters deserving assessment attention is so discretized as to lose sight of many of the holistic, synoptic value systems that Indigenous communities repeatedly say they want applied in assessments. Further, they ignore other factors affecting assessment processes, especially technological innovation, uncertainty about best practices in planning for community ...

  • MFFN Access Road EA Process & Webequie First Nation Supply Road December 13, 2019 Fort Albany First Nation has a mixed economy (Sustenance –harvesting/trapping/hunting/fishing, local entrepreneurship, resource based economic practice including small scale forestry, some professional work, i.e., health services, education, administration, retail, etc.) There are currently high unemployment rates and lower high school graduation rates. Training in resources related fields, particularly within the traditional homelands of FAFN should be the focus for negotiations, lobbying, and advocacy activities by Chief and Council, Mushkegowuk Council, NAN, COO, and AFN. Fort Albany First Nation(FAFN) has relied on the lands, waters, and related resources on their homelands of Treaty #9 of 1905, as the primary economic driver long before 1492. Today, many of the natural resources are rapidly depleting due to Climate Change, pollution, globalization, natural and man-made ...

  • Context: Prior to 1965, Peetabeck Inninowuk (FAFN) enjoyed good health due to an active lifestyle and healthy traditional diets. These diets were balanced and included protein, healthy fats, and some fruits and vegetables. Oral history suggests good health and longevity. This good health included ceremonial, spiritual, and physical elements. Specific types of healers included midwives, herbal healers, and shaman. In addition, there were customary laws regarding food and hygiene that assisted the people in staying healthy. Living in our mushkeg environment, Peetabeck Inninowuk lifestyle had many other “health- protecting” characteristics as well, including small size, comparatively low population density, reasonable mobility on land and water, seasonal relocations to different harvest locations, intimate knowledge of the local environment, environmentally friendly subsistence practices, and the availability of a variety of foods.
