NATURAL RESOURCES – 1. SALMON MANAGEMENT –
Dr. Fred Metallic presented an update of his proposed work on the subject
of the Listuguj Salmon Management Plan entitled the Listuguj Mi’gmaq
Government’s Proposed Restigouche River Esturary Watershed
Management Plan. He provided an interesting PowerPoint presentation on
the history of salmon management by the Listuguj Mi’gmaw prior to
European occupation. The PP’s central theme is around the significance of
salmon fishery to the Mi’gmaw in terms of Mi’gmaw culture, social and
economic foundations which would lead to an integrated salmon
management plan. He noted that this presentation was the exact power
point presented at a recent meeting held in New York City with the
Restigouche River Watershed Management Council, the Restigouche River
Camp Owners Association and other stakeholders. The Chief and Dr. Fred
Metallic’s perspective on the outcome of this meeting was one of optimism
ending on a positive note. The Proposal was approved by the LMG Council
giving Dr. Fred a mandate to proceed with the work. Chief Metallic
indicated that the community will be provided with the same presentation
at an upcoming Community meeting.
