This book was released on 1909 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practicum presents the results of research initiated in February 1997 to assess the effectiveness of alternative marine protection mechanisms for beluga management, through community consultations, in the Inuvialuit Settlement (ISR). Fieldwork was conducted in the ISR from June 20 to July 24, 1997. The researcher visited the communities of Aklavik, Inuvik, and Tuktoyaktuk as well as the whaling camps of East Whitefish Station, Shingle Point, Running River, and Hendrickson Island. The researcher spoke with members affiliated with different groups such as federal and local governments, and hunters, and identified issues related to enforcement of the Beaufort Sea Beluga Management Plan (BSBMP). While the BSBMP is currently a relatively effective plan, there is concern that its guidelines will not be observed should industrial activity resume in the region. As a result, it was concluded that a legislative mechanism should be implemented in the ISR for beluga management. Of the three federal departments identified as having the authority to establish marine protection mechanisms, namely the Department of Canadian Heritage, the Department of the Environment, and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, marine protected areas, under the Department of Fisheries and Oceans' Oceans Act (1996) were deemed to be the most appropriate mechanism for beluga management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Introduction: The Inuit of northern Quebec continue to depend on many marine species as sources of country food. These species include seals, walrus, beluga whales and fish. A process of co-management of these populations has been initiated, which involves the participation of both scientists and Inuit. Studies are being conducted on beluga to ensure wise management of the stocks. In Nunavik, the harvest of marine species is spread over a wide area, thus it is very expensive for a single scientific investigator to cover the whole region. Inuit hunters have a detailed knowledge of the anatomy and behaviour of the wildlife they harvest. This knowledge has been used to decrease the costs of collecting samples and data. For over a decade now, Inuit hunters have been completing these data forms and sending samples to the Nunavik Research Centre. This integrated approach to obtain samples and collect data has been undertaken in conjunction with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), Environment Canada, The Kativik Regional Government and the Nunavik Research Centre (NRC) of Makivik Corporation. Members of the local Hunting, Fishing and Trapping Associations (HFTA) gather samples from beluga and related information, then send them to the NRC. Samples are processed at the Research Centre and those collected for other investigators are forwarded on to them. ... Summary of samples gathered in 2006: Samples were collected from beluga whales to: identify stocks through genetic analysis; determine the age structure of the harvest. ... Methods: Sampling kits: Kits were prepared using Ziplock brand freezer bags. ... Each kit and its contents were identified with a serial number. The kits were sent to all communities in Nunavik prior to the whale-hunting season. A community coordinator was responsible for the distribution and collection of kits. Staff at NRC verified that the kits had arrived in the communities by phone. ... Results and Discussion: Community participation in the sampling program, which has been carried out more than a decade, remains low with some communities which hunted but did not return any kits .... This is likely from dissatisfaction with the reduction in quotas or the regulation that they must travel to a hunting zone far from their community. Thus, in some communities, no or few samples have been provided. The reluctance of some hunters to participate because they disagree with the quota that is in place for beluga is understandable. However, if no information is collected, the quota will be based on existing information and will not likely change. By participating in the project, some communities show their concern for beluga management - the purpose of which is to ensure that there are belugas for the next generation to hunt. In other communities, they see that collaboration with biologists has only brought them a reduction in allowable harvest. Given that the beluga harvest is such a contentious issue, the number of complete kits that were returned (n=57) shows that a sizable number of hunters still are willing to participate in the sampling program.

Download or read book Canada s Relationship with Inuit written by Sarah Bonesteel and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inuit have lived in Canada's north since time immemorial. The Canadian government's administration of Inuit affairs, however, has been generally shorter and is less well understood than the federal government's relations with First Nations and Métis. We hope to correct some of this knowledge imbalance by providing an overview of the federal government's Inuit policy and program development from first contact to 2006. Topics that are covered by this book include the 1939 Re Eskimo decision that gave Canada constitutional responsibility for Inuit, post World War II acculturation and defence projects, law and justice, sovereignty and relocations, the E-number identification system, Inuit political organizations, comprehensive claim agreements, housing, healthcare, education, economic development, self-government, the environment and urban issues. In order to develop meaningful forward-looking policy, it is essential to understand what has come before and how we got to where we are. We believe that this book will be a valuable contribution to a growing body of knowledge about Canada-Inuit relations, and will be an indispensable resource to all students of federal Inuit and northern policy development.
