  • Good evening,   I am writing in response to the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC) comment opportunity on the Summary of the Initial Project Description for the Northern Road Link (NRL) Project, as posted on the Registry site (Reference Number: 84331). It is understood that the IAAC is determining whether an Impact Assessment is required for the proposed project.   Long Lake #58 First Nation (LL58) does not currently have the required resources to conduct a review of this technical document within the comment deadline. While LL58 has made efforts to be engaged and informed on this project, the restrictive timeline and resource challenges have prevented our participation in this project to-date.   This is a major project that will change the face of northern Ontario forever. LL58’s inability to provide formal comment should not be seen as an absence of concern nor disinterest in the project; we recognize ...

  • The development of all-weather roads for northern Ontario would be best done on an overall plan of access to/from the north which acknowledges and respects existing long-established service patterns.    Doing one-off environmental assessments for very specific parts of the north and utilizing resource extraction as the trigger to do this planning will very likely result in significant economic disruptions to downstream municipalities, businesses, agencies, and provincial systems including health care, education, social services, and more.

We believe in the equitable inclusion of all identities in resource development projects. There are known impacts and barriers that accompany resource extractive industry which are experienced in greater intensity by vulnerable or marginalized identity groups. The inclusion of Indigenous women and gender diverse people priorities from project planning outset is highly needed to combat structural violence impacting marginalized groups. It is highly ...

  • With the potential usage of this proposed road to Northern Ontario communities and likely more impact on the breathing lands, why is a railway north to those communities not being considered? There is a huge possibility that mining in the peatlands might not be approved. We should still consider first all First Nations communities together on how they want progress on their traditional territories. If they do not all agree, then we need to let it go.
