New Agreement Gov & FN

[chevy guy]

Vancouver, British Columbia - There is no relationship more important to the Government of Canada than the one with Indigenous Peoples. Our government is committed to advancing a renewed relationship with Indigenous communities, based on the recognition of rights, respect, cooperation, and partnership. As part of this commitment, we are working to modernize and strengthen nation-to-nation, government-to-government structures, and to support a more collaborative approach to fisheries management by the Government of Canada and Indigenous Peoples.

British Columbia (BC) First Nations along the migratory route of Fraser salmon have a long standing and profound relationship with the Fraser salmon. The conservation and restoration of Fraser salmon today, and for generations to come, is the highest priority when we are making governance and management decisions about this species.

Today, the Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, and Darren Haskell, President of the Fraser Salmon Management Council (FSMC), announced the signing of the Fraser Salmon Collaborative Management Agreement between Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and the FSMC.

This is a landmark agreement that signals a significant change and opportunity for meaningful and innovative reconciliation work between DFO and Indigenous communities. This creates a joint DFO-FSMC board that will review, and make collaborative decisions on operational fisheries issues, to be outlined in their annual work plan.

The Fraser Salmon Management Council was established by First Nations along the migratory route of Fraser salmon in March 2014, with the adoption of their constitution and bylaws. FSMC currently includes 76 member First Nations representing a majority of British Columbia (BC) First Nations with access to Fraser salmon fisheries. The Fraser Salmon Management Council membership includes First Nations along the migratory route of Fraser salmon, including the Upper, Middle and Lower Fraser and Marine Approach (Vancouver Island) areas.

Dumb Fools!!

And there it is! That is the angle we need to address this issue from. The gov is not upholding its own law.

Could this be the chance at a silver bullet

I know a better use for a silver bullet.

DFO’s approach to salmon management is causing a social divide but the root of the issue is the supreme court’s ruling. Are we talking about challenging the FN’s constitutional rights ? If yes, that could be a very long and bumpy road. Most runs could go extinct by the time there’s any ruling.

 

[wildmanyeah]

no, there would be little point its enshrined in LAW

 

[fish4all]

no, there would be little point its enshrined in LAW

Time to change the laws.

Changing the Indian act in the constitution required a 2/3 vote.

When it was attempted in the past the opposition party and Indians sold it as assimilation.

I do think it will be changed in the future but maybe not even in my lifetime. I actually expect it to change when white people become the minority in Canada. Who knows if we will even have fish to fight over then..

New conservative fisheries minister tells Fraser river FN sorry that’s not what the science says, and we are allocating more officers to check up on you... ya my dream...
