Description
This Canadian Boreal Initiative report is the first-ever national report to examine the status of boreal conservation activities related to land use planning, Aboriginal rights, protected areas, sustainable development and research.
The study highlights the Mackenzie Valley, northern Saskatchewan, the East Side of Lake Winnipeg and Labrador as areas of greatest potential for conservation-based planning in advance of new industrial developments, and points to the key role of Aboriginal people in developing innovative conservation models across the country.
