NESKANTAGA FIRST NATION, Ont. - Leaders with Neskantaga First Nation are calling for a halt to an environmental assessment for a proposed road to the Ring of Fire in Northern Ontario, saying the community is already facing numerous emergencies and the communities voices are only being marginalized further.
Chief Wayne Moonias wrote a letter to various government officials and First Nations leaders saying the community’s decision-making is being undermined by the province during a pandemic.
“With the release of the announcement that the Northern Road Link environmental assessment process will be commencing, it is obvious that Ontario has ‘weaponized’ the environmental assessment process to further repress our Aboriginal and Treaty Rights. We are under duress,” Moonias writes.
They are also asking other First Nations to respect their role in the process.
Marten Falls and Webequie issued a joint statement in advance of the anticipated announcement Tuesday of the official Notice of Commencement of the development of the terms of reference for the
Northern Road Link.
It marks the start of a planning process for the provincial environmental assessment for the project, a 120-kilometre north-south road connecting two other proposed projects: the Webequie Supply Road just west of the Ring of Fire mineral zone, and the Marten Falls Community Access Road south of the Ring of Fire.
It s been sharply criticized by the leadership Neskantaga First Nation, southwest of the Ring of Fire.
