Given the increasing politicization of indigenous peoples and today's climate of "enlightened" race relations, many states are seeking to restructure their relationship with the aboriginal populations within their borders. In Canada, efforts are underway to develop processes that more fully and fairly incorporate aboriginal people into the Canadian state. These efforts are intended to empower First Nation people by granting them a significant role in the governance of their own lands and people. On the face of it, this seems a vast improvement over many of the racist and assimilationist policies of the past. In this dissertation, however, I argue that for First Nation people in Canada, this new relationship with...
The original Management Plan for the Wilderness Preserve and Habitat Protection Area was approved in 2004 by the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation, North Yukon Renewable Resources Council, and Yukon Government.

The purpose of this report is to summarize the history of human‐bear interactions in the vicinity of the Congdon Creek campground between 1976 and 2013. The goal is to trace the development of the campground as well as an adjacent solid waste landfill and document, to the extent possible, the number and variety of human‐bear interactions that have occurred in the area over the last 37 years. This will serve as useful background information as we proceed with our experimental removal of soapberry bushes in the immediate campground area and will help determine if the number of human‐bear conflicts in the area is affected by removing natural attractants within the campground.

Examines the planning and development implications associated with numerous spot land applications in the Fish lake area. The study examined land suitability, potential servicing costs and potential land use conflicts between area users and the different land values present.
This Plan provides management direction for land and resources in the Peel Watershed Planning Region. An earlier version of this Plan was produced by a public planning commission through Chapter 11 of the Yukon First Nation Final Agreements (PWPC 2011). This Plan, approved by Yukon government in December 2013, reflects modifications completed by Yukon government and applies only to Non-Settlement Land within the Peel Watershed Planning Region. At 67,430 km2 in size, the remote, mountainous Peel Watershed Planning Region covers 14 percent of the territory. It is a special part of Yukon. There are no permanent settlements, it is largely unroaded, and in the past experienced only relatively low levels of mineral and...

The longer-term approach included a detailed examination of the current regulatory systems for non-renewable resources in Northern Canada and a process to make improvements. This report is in response to the Cabinet Directive and the Northern...
