  • Operationalizing ambiguity in sustainability science

    Open AccessAnita Lazurko, L Jamila Haider et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2023Cited by: 2References: 33

    Ambiguity is often recognized as an intrinsic aspect of addressing complex sustainability challenges. Nevertheless, in the practice of transdisciplinary sustainability research, ambiguity is often an 'elephant in the room' to be either side-stepped or reduced rather than explicitly mobilized in pursuit of solutions. These responses threaten the salience and legitimacy of sustainability science by masking the pluralism of real-world sustainability…

  • Finding Common Ground

    Open AccessFraser McLeod, Leela Viswanathan et al.ARTICLEInternational Indigenous Policy…2015

    This article provides an in-depth analysis of selective land use and resource management policies in the Province of Ontario, Canada. It examines their relative capacity to recognize the rights of First Nations and Aboriginal peoples and their treaty rights, as well as their embodiment of past Crown–First Nations relationships. An analytical framework was developed to evaluate the manifest and latent content of 337 provincial texts, including 32 …

  • Sustaining a Local-food Security Initiative in a Remote Subarctic Community

    Andrea D Isogai, Erin Alexiuk et al.ARTICLEThe International Journal of…2015

    Fort Albany First Nation of sub-Arctic Ontario, Canada, in collaboration with the University of Waterloo, has begun implementing an agroforestry community gardens (AFCGs) initiative as an alternative to the existing, non-sustainable, expensive import-based food system. In addition, community members have recognized the potential importance of this initiative in contributing to the food security of future generations. Thus, adults have inquired as…

  • Examining the Potential Use of the Collaborative-Geomatics Informatics Tool to Foster Intergenerational Transfer of Knowledge in a Remote First Nation Community

    Open AccessAndrea Isogai, Andrea D Isogai et al.ARTICLEThe Australian Journal of…2013References: 34

    Northern First Nations in Canada have experienced environmental change throughout history, adapting to these changes based on personal experience interacting with their environment. Community members of Fort Albany First Nation of northern Ontario, Canada, have voiced their concern that their youths' connection to the land is diminishing, making this generation more vulnerable to environmental change. Community members previously identified the c…

  • The Far North Act (2010) Consultative Process

    Open AccessHolly L Gardner, Holly Gardner et al.ARTICLEInternational Indigenous Policy…2012

    In northern Ontario, Canada, there have been two “negotiated” documents that required consultation between First Nations and the federated government of the land: Treaty No. 9 signed in 1905-1906 (Dominion of Canada, with the concurrence of the Province of Ontario) and Ontario’s Far North Act (2010). Treaty No. 9 has defined the relationship between First Nations and Canada; while, the Far North Act will define the relationship with Ontario. This…

  • Getting back to basics

    Leonard J S Tsuji, Daniel D Mccarthy et al.ARTICLEImpact Assessment and Project…2011

    Proper scoping is essential for any environmental assessment (EA) process. This is particularly true with respect to resource development in the intercultural setting of First Nation homelands of northern Canada. Improper scoping leads to EAs that are flawed for a number of reasons. For example, potentially impacted stakeholders are excluded from the process; thus, the proper collection of baseline information is not possible resulting in inaccur…

  • The controversy of transferring the Class Environmental Assessment process to northern Ontario, Canada

    Jessica McEachren, Graham S Whitelaw et al.ARTICLEImpact Assessment and Project…2011

    Since Canada employs a federated system of government, there are separate environmental assessment (EA) processes at the national and provincial levels. In the Province of Ontario there is a streamlined, pre-approved, self-assessed process for ‘classes’ of projects. It is assumed that Class EA protocol developed in the southern Ontarian context is directly transferable to northern Ontario. A case-based approach, using the Victor Mine transmission…

  • The Victor Diamond Mine environmental assessment process

    Graham S Whitelaw, Daniel D Mccarthy et al.ARTICLEImpact Assessment and Project…2009

    Restrictive scoping has emerged as a contentious issue in environmental assessment (EA) with developments in northern Canada on Aboriginal territorial homelands. Restrictive scoping potentially leads to the exclusion of potentially affected stakeholders, constrained impact assessment, and inadequate collection of baseline information and traditional knowledge. The First Diamond Mine in Ontario, Canada, is located on the Attawapiskat River in the …
