“We’re not looking to reclaim private lands, that’s not part of the discussion,” Chief George Ginnish of the Natoaganeg First Nation, a Mi’gmag community near Miramichi said in an interview.“It’s about Crown lands, it’s about industrial activity that’s happening on Crown land. It’s about having a process for development, resource extraction, things that are going on now that are kind of one-offs that would have a formal process.
“Let’s have a realistic discussion that recognizes the relationship and helps our communities move forward and take our rightful place in the words of our elders, in our own land,” he said.
